They are a fine operation for guys on their way up

How long after the interview do you get the thumbs up/down? And what are the chances that a new FO could get STL?

I heard about a week after my interview.

I'd guess you'd have an easy time getting STL as an FO, there is only 1 FO out here right now and they like to keep guys out here cause its usually pretty junior and they need guys for high mins captains.

I could be wrong on that though since most junior people are going to the Caribbean now since our wonderful union helped them take 15% pay cut.

How many flight and duty hours does a 402 CA average on a weekly/monthly basis?

Typically, how many days off does one have off per week?

I can only speak for the Northeast operations. But flight and duty times vary widely. Most of the EAS outstations like RUT, LEB, SLK, etc work long days and get a lot of flight time in. Most outstations have at least 45 hours of duty per week. The Cape schedules (HYA, EWB, ACK, etc) tend to be mostly 40 hour min lines, with less flight time. For example, when I was based at one of the EAS outstations, I was getting paid 52 hours a week and logging 85-95 hours of flight time a month. When I was based down on the Cape, I was only working about 30 hours, getting the 40 hour min, and logging 35-45 hours a month.

As far as days off, you'll almost definitely get 3 days off a week. The 5 on 2 off lines are mostly gone if not entirely gone. One of many things the union was able to accomplish, despite what some broken records may say...

Does anyone know if there is a way to get a copy of the application for pilot jobs?

I got 3000 TT, 12 hours of Multi, CFII, a 4 yr degree.
Can anyone at Cape comment at my chances? Also, if I have a shot, which do I apply for FO or Captain?

What is current salary scale for pilot at Cape?

Why is Cape called 9K?

Thanks!

1. Apply and see what happens
2. Do you or do you not have ATP minimums
3. First year captains start at $15.24 per duty hour with a 40 hour/week guarantee
4. 9K is Cape's IATA code; every airline has one.

Good luck!

Does 9K give a "no thanks" email or just no call? Any experience?

Can someone explain the FO part of Cape Air? Do certain runs have FO's and others don't and can you log this time?
