Im in AZ and I saw their jet at PGA.

Is 800TT and 25ME enough to get a job as an FO or are they firm on the 100 ME per their ad? I am currently flying 135 and have turbine time.

PetRock,

Having worked for Contour for two years I would reccomend someone of your time as an FO. I dont get on here much but people took a lot of offense to my last post for some reason. Ultimate will officially end their partnership with OneJet sept 29. Ultimate haa to fulfill contracts until then. Contour hired at least 13 pilots from Onejet, I know I have seen the list. To top it off we have only been hiring for PGA and OAK. Which is a far cry from the 7-8 positions we were hiring into a year ago.

I actually applied for the PHX FO position. Should I also apply for the PGA position as well, or is there someone I should call to let them know I would also be interested in the other position?

EDIT: looks like the PGA position has been filled.

People gone from ONEJETS board of directors :



Former DELTA VP and founder of Virgin America Fred Reid



Former US DOT Secretary Ray LaHood



Former Midwest Airlines CEO Timothy Hoeksema



ONEJET has never made a penny since its inception... the clock is ticking ...


There was a CNBC piece today that said operations are suspended.

I wish i could give you more info. I dont have any gauge on what movement is like on the ERJ side. I really suspect some OneJet pilots were in line for the positions.

There will some retiring of other aircraft types. ERJ will be offered to those who want to stick around.

I noticed some positions are always open but there there is only one airplane associated with that location. Is it that hard to find qualified pilots or is there a lot of internal movement in the pilot group that keeps those locations looking?
I applied for a CA position and heard nothing for 6 months. Received a voicemail about it several weeks ago and have been unable to get a callback even after leaving several messages of my own.
