Does Air Choice One have any part time captains? Also, Is Atlanta a base?

Thanks

No and no. STL is the only base, essentially. One or two pilots are based elsewhere, but that is a special circumstance. You would need to be with the company long term and more than a line pilot to achieve being based anywhere other than STL.

I've noticed they posted the FO positions again with a closure date for November 1. Does anyone have an idea of when they will be conducting interviews? Also, any idea on how many FOs they are looking bring on?

in general 1 to 4 FO's per month.

Just put your app in and keep updating it. It's rare that they have a "large" new hire class. Just enough to somewhat keep pace with attrition.
Sometimes they hire more at one time, but it isn't the norm.

Captain training contract unless the captain already has 5k+ hours.

Anyone know what to expect for ground school? What is the class pass rate? Minimum scores for written tests?

So how exactly does the contract work when you upgrade to captain? Say you’re hired as an FO between 500-1000 hours. You upgrade to captain at 1200hrs. Do you then have a year to fulfill from that date? Or does that year add on to any contract you signed as an FO?
