Veri Jet

Anyone have any info about Veri Jet. They are are Cirrus Jet fractional. I have two pilots I mentor considering going to work for them. Even though it’s a small jet with very limited payload and range. They have 7 on 7 off schedule. Pay is decent (especially for such a small airplane) 110K first year with 10K bonus if you compete a year.

Supposedly they take good care of pilots. Can anyone confirm or have any details?

Thanks.

What’s their end goal? Single engine turbine on a 6,000lb MTOW plane probably won’t help much with anything

Piloted jet UAV under a cowl & a parachute, interesting. Tried to price a trip using the webpage calculator but was prompted to call for quotes. Why there's a pic with a dog wearing a headset can't imagine.

Both 60 ish (not building time or experience) and more concerned with quality of life at home and at work with descent pay. Neither would accept 15/13 or even 8/6 schedules. Apparently reasonable work days, home based (with duty time on day one starting when you leave your house). Also pilots can use a jet for personal use just paying for fuel.

Just curious if they really take care of pilots?

I’m considering applying as a retirement job if they are around in a few years. I like the personal use for fuel. The dog pic is because they will let you fly with your pets.

Loaded with impressive capabilities. Had no idea things had come so far. If it’s smooth a ride as competition in the small cabin segment, they’ll land orders. Possibly an ins cost reduction for some owner/operators. One of the reviews featured claims of 3k an hour for most charter billings with legs inside 1200nm on flight plans near 300 kts. The dog looks pleased.

Heard today they laid off a substantial amount of their pilot group.

Correct not only that last six months been late on payroll several times. It’s just matter of time they are done! Terrible business model totally mismanaged. Know several pilots there. Half there flying is positioning an empty airplane (not paid by customer) for a two hour flight to fly a 45 minute revenue flight,

You won’t hear anything. Had pilots in training they furloughed. Because they stopped paying Cirrus simulator bills they no longer have access to sim training. Doing all recurrent in actual airplane. Also almost 40% of the pilots are furloughed more to come.
