Everts Air Cargo
Hey Guys
Do anyone has information on Everts Air Cargo? I am looking into their right seat EMB-120 position. Pay? Training contract? Schedules? Quality of company? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
Sent you a PM
|
I applied for it as well, and got an email back asking for more information less than a week later.

Check the details
Read carefully, very carefully, the package. I think it's pretty bad.
Low pay, loading the aircraft AND, on the road for 18 days straight. I like the 80 and 9er but not for such low pay. Ask questions as the devil is in the details. Here's two; Why are the always advertising? Why did you get such a quick call back? Crew house in Laredo and if you've never been to a donkey show, well, you're in for a shock! It what you do down there while sitting a lot. If you've never loaded a large aircraft, that too is something of a shock. Part of training is getting fork lift and jack pallet qualified. Again, look at the pay for all of this. I read it and then threw it away. You'd be better off at a regional with passes and pax terminals etc. Imagine loading and unloading an MD80 in the middle of winter. I bet one time would cure you of this job. |

Donkey days…and…donkey…ni…i..ights Laredo diesel…ni..i..ine It's plain to see..what's ahead for me..donkey days and donkey nights |
That E-120 has been sitting on the barker ramp for months in Laredo. They keep saying they're gunna put it on the 135 cert so you don't have to have an ATP to ride in it but it has yet to happen.
|
I believe the 120 is on the 135 certificate.

I'll be retiring from the Army in about 6 Months and was curious as to the minimums to fly with Everts up in Alaska. I do hold Comm/Inst AMEL, just very few hours. Would love to get back up to Alaska, and I don't mind getting my hands a little dirty.

Thank you for your service to our country and all the best. |
Everts Air Alaska is the Part 135 operation based in Fairbanks. There is also a Part 125 operation, Everts Air Fuel that flies the DC-6 and C-46. You could fly for them until you have the time and experience to transition to the Part 121 operation and fly the DC-6, DC-9 or MD-80 in Anchorage.

I am interested in Everts as well, most likely the 121 side in the MD-80 (Home Based). 121 qualified with an unrestricted ATP. Anyone know if they will allow home basing from the State of Alaska? I know they are an Alaska based company but sometimes companies consider Alaska and Hawaii to be "international" and won't home base from either states probably due to cost. Would also be interested in the ANC based DC-9 FO position but am curious as to where they fly the DC-9 out of ANC. Is it mainly within the State of Alaska or do they do any out of state flying from ANC?

That said there is a relatively new MD-80 pilot base in ANC, so that would be an option if you live in ANC. I know they are an Alaska based company but sometimes companies consider Alaska and Hawaii to be "international" and won't home base from either states probably due to cost. Would also be interested in the ANC based DC-9 FO position but am curious as to where they fly the DC-9 out of ANC. Is it mainly within the State of Alaska or do they do any out of state flying from ANC? That doesn't mean you could be assigned elsewhere. For instance when the hurricane devastated Puerto Rico, we had an MD-80 and a Brasilia that flew relief efforts down there for several weeks. The ANC DC-9 is being phased out and replaced with MD-80s. One is already permanently assigned there. Another will be coming up for the summer (allegedly!). A fourth MD is currently in door conversion and a fifth is slated for conversion this fall/winter. New hire ANC based pilots will be trained in the MD-80. PM me with any other questions. |
Can someone translate this from their hiring ad:
“Do not use IRO for PIC”? |

“Do not use IRO for PIC”? The IRO rides along, and sits in one of the two seats when the flying crewmember is out of the seat. When a flight is long enough to require a IRO, due to flight time limitations, the IRO spends time in the pilot seats enroute. While the IRO may occupy the captain's seat, he or she is not the captain, and should not log it as PIC on a 121 flight in which the certificate holder has designated a PIC. In other words, sole manipulator, a captain does not make: they want you to show PIC the time you were actually the PIC, not simply flying the airplane. |

I keep seeing ads for DC-6 FO. Wonder what thats like... Glorified ramper? I would imagine upgrades are a careers length away. Im sure its some fun flying though.

Its a unique opportunity if you've got an adventurous spirit. |
What P.Rat said, DC-6 flying would be part of your career you would never forget.

Nothing beats the sound of four R-2800s coming to life during engine start, then the roar during the takeoff roll. Alaska, the last prestige vestige to view while passing the time at altitudes of less than 10,000’. The owner of the airline, himself, straps the DC-6 and C-46 to his back and flies cargo too. Great guy. You’ll never work for a better gent then Rob. Can’t tell a joke... but he does buy the beers. |
Commuting from the lower 48
Anyone with experience working for Everts and commuting to Alaska from the lower 48? Do the CASS privileges work out or do you find yourself paying your own way?
Thanks in advance for any info! |
I did a 3,000+ commute with Everts all the time. Never had an issue. They have an agreement with every major and regional airline I can think of.

I'm interested in the EMB120 FO, went to the website, downloaded the pdf but cannot find an email to submit a resume......

Thanks for the response. I live in North Dakota so my commute would be thru Minneapolis more than likely. I haven't seen a whole lot of empty seats now-a-days so I'm concerned about pulling it off in a timely manner.

What is the schedule like at Everts Air Cargo? And how much flight time are pilots getting on average each month?
|
Home based 16 on/14 off. First day is a ticket to where the airplane is, last day a ticket home. 60 hour guarantee. That's about right for the L48 folks. Everts Air Cargo is Part 121 Supplemental, not Part 135. There is a Part 135 operation based in FAI.
