Hi, there!

We do have an 18/12 schedule if you are home-based.
But if you live near one of our bases (non home based), it's more like 5/2.

I haven't heard of a 2/2 and hope that none of our recruiters are advertising that.

Let me know if you have any questions! We'd love to have you apply! :)

Best regards!

What about home basing for the VFR only positions?

No. Since the FO positions (other than the E120) are there to get low time pilots to IFR 135 mins, we want you flying full time to get there ASAP to get you ready to be a captain.







Again, while the VFR positions are captain, they are also to get you to IFR mins as soon as possible. In addition, there are only two bases where VFR captains are really useful; PHX and ABQ.



Finally, if you don't have 135 IFR mins yet, once you get there, you would likely go to a BE99 or PA31 and currently home basing is only for type rated aircraft.

Can you confirm what is specifically meant by Home Based? Would someone who departs PHX in the morning to an outstation like KSAD and then return at night be considered home based?
