Hi, there!

Our best guess is January.
Folks are upgrading to the left seat and opening up those spots, but we're not thinking we'll be able to take any until January.

Hope that helps!

It does! Thanks

I'm honoring my contract and I can't leave till December/January, so that would be perfect.

Is there a way we can apply for the ACP now or will you post it closer to January?

Default Interview Sim Ride

Is the interview sim ride conducted at the base closest to where I currently live, or is it done at the base to which I apply? And, is a random approach procedure chosen to fly at that location? What type of simulator is used? I'd like to get some practice in as close to the real thing as possible before getting to that point.

There is no interview sim. There is a technical interview but it is all done over the phone.

It may be a stupid question but how's the workload as a single pilot IFR? I know not all the planes have GPS and of course no AP.
I fly single pilot VFR and obviously it's a piece of cake, but just wondering

Oh, I didn't know that. Is this a recent change? I've heard in the past that there was a simulator check as part of the hiring process.
Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply.
It's been a year or two. Pretty much since we got our own recruiting department doing the interviews instead of base assistant chief pilots.

Do you know if the BE99 is available in PDX? I sent in my application but haven’t heard anything.

I don't know anything specific about PDX. I know in general we still need people everywhere. We had 22 in the indoc class a week ago. That's about the max we can handle unless we rent an outside space for the classroom. So hang in there and keep updating your times.
