You do know they filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization and significantly reduced their routes? They are flying out of Portland to Pendelton and North Bend and also Houston to El Dorado, Hot Springs, Harrison AR and Memphis TN. Check out their web site.

From what I understand it is 5 on 2 off initially and then usually you can hold a 4 on 3 off line after you get some relative seniority in your position i.e. after you have been there a few months.

Thanks Flyguy, are they still hiring regardless of the chapter 11 bk?

I have the impression that it's a better place than AC1..

ATP rated pilots can fly directly left seat?

Hey all,

Got a call for FO. Anyone have any updated info on the situation/bases/etc.? Hadn't read through here prior to that app and not sure about moving the family as have a couple other possibilities in the pipeline also that wouldn't require moving but bird in the hand vs. two in the bush...

Thinking of doing the interview for sure but also curious what questions I should make sure to ask beyond the obvious pay/base assignment/contract. Don't want to move, have it suck and be stuck when I could've held out for an extra month and a more favorable option.

Thanks!

Why would you want to work here when they have filed Chapter 11 and lost most of their flying?

Hence me asking Sometimes restarts can be good, sometimes not. Even 2 months of flying would bump me over needed hours for other gigs and sometimes a job is better than not. Its not my preference but figured better to find out if any current info was available.

There is a one year contract with $7500 buy out that they are collecting on. Coming here for 200 hours is not a great idea. If you're based in Memphis you'll have some variety in flying, but PDX you'll be going to Pendleton over and over. It's pretty monotonous. I will say that I see SeaPort coming out of this in better shape. There is word new routes could be opening in the near future.
