Most are going to Billings. There are a couple vacancies in the Midwest though. I know Marion, Owensboro, and Kirksville can take another FO.

Depends on how far you're going from Hyannis.

Less than 100 miles: 1 day off
100-500: 3 days
500-2500: 1 week
2500+ : 2 weeks

Does Cape Air currently hire part-time pilots? If so, what does their schedule generally look like?

They don't "hire" part time guys. They do have a few people that have been there a while that they allow to transition to part time.

I applied for part time position as I'm a crop duster in Montana in summers and was turned down because you have to be full time for a year "then" you can go part time!! I said I'd go full time 10 months outta the year if I can just go part time May and June to make a little cheddar. Wouldn't have it.. Then today in billings gazette there was big article about how they have been canceling all these flights due to pilot shortage!! 👍 Not winning!!!

Wow! That's not good. That's why the last guys lost the Montana contract. I would have stayed longer if they didn't make you move every 5-6 months.

Maybe they should reconsider, given they have to cancel flights due to a "pilot shortage"

I think the big problem is they need Captains.

16 flights isn't that many considering how many flights each base has per day.
