Thinking about bidding BOS if one of my current roommates wants to get a place up there, or going to PBG or something if I can hold that. No way I'd hold SJU. Don't think I'd want to either.

I'd say maybe 1 out of every 30 flights I do down here in SJU is filed as IFR.

Anyway, not challenging anybody on how the time is logged. Just wondering how.

I didn't realize you flew for them. *Inserts foot in mouth*

I start the internet-based training on the 16th, and I'll be in HYA on the 23rd to start the hands-on stuff.

I'll just keep my mouth shut until I actually know what I'm talking about

Hi There,


First time poster here, though I have been viewing this thread and website for some time now. Having spent several months reading threads in the regional forum, it's nice to finally hear some individuals talk positively about their company. Congratulations to those of you who were recently hired by Cape Air. I am currently flight instructing and plan to do so at least through the summer season. Hopefully by then, I will have enough tt to be somewhat competitive and move on to something else. I have enjoyed instructing and found the experience invaluable, but I am ready to get my hands on the flight controls again (rather than just on landing ). QOL is my main focus while exploring my future options, and it sounds like those of you employed by Cape Air have had few complaints. I imagine HR has an ever-growing stack of resumes on their desk right now as hiring everywhere has slowed, so my question to all of you is this: Is there anything you suggest I do over the course of the next six months to better my chances of landing an interview other than just increasing my tt? Your input is much appreciated!
More questions to come...

Does anybody know if Cape Air is still looking for 402 freight pilots?

APPLY! What do ya have to lose by applying?! DO IT!!! The worst that they can say is "NO"... Just one note, do not expect an immediate call or email. I applied about a month ago and about a week or 2 ago, finally got an email that they have recieved my application and are reviewing it.
