Empire Airlines...Anyone know about them?
I was just wondering if anyone knew about the overall atmosphere of Empire Airlines?
I was wondering
How hard is it get based out of Oakland?
Do you have to start in a Caravan or can you go straight to an ATR?
How long is upgrade to Captain on the ATR?
Give me the good, the bad, and the ugly!
Thanks all!

I hear they are hiring. I see them in Southeast Alaska. ATR FedEx run from Seattle to KTN, SIT, and JNU. Also they fly out of ANC. I think you can skip the Caravan. I hear six months in the right seat will get you in the left of the ATR.

My buddy (nice guy, non-complaining type) just resigned from Empire as they were offering him an upgrade to Capt in the ATR. He says the pay isn't good, some questionable maint. and they are beginning to have some tension between management and the pilots. To upgrade, you must sign another training contract. So, one for new hires and one for upgrades. I can't elaborate though. He decided to go to Xjet and start all over again as an FO.
