If you have more than 3 days off a month
If you dont have to stay @ the flight school from 8am to 4pm even if you dont have any students and go home with $0 that day
If your pay is higher than 1,400$ a month
If they give you at least 1 Shirt


Consider yourself in a great school ...

LOL I dont get close to 1400 dollars. If I could make 1400 i would be psyched. But as they saying goes " we all got to eat ****". And the other saying " throw enough **** at a wall and something will stick"

this in untrue, the SICs fly 100-120 hours a month.

you will be signing a 1 year contract though and nothing at PW is very stable

Funny, both the 135 companies paid for at least a couple shirts or flight suits.


My only experience with PW was a phone interview for Chief Pilot. I had 1000 in 'vans and 3000+ 135 single pilot. When we started to talk about pay, he "thought" he could match the pay I was getting as a 421 line pilot (low 40s). Considering the cost of living, it would have been about a 30% pay cut.... forget about all the extra work involved with being CP! Sounded just too cheap for me.

Well, their HI operation AKA Pacific Wings operates differently then.... BTW didn't they fire all their SIC's for no reason? Better watch out. Seaport is bidding for runs against Georgia Skies... You know PW's old chief is at Seaport now

He's the new D.O., not the CP. I can promise you SeaPort's QOL is tenfold that of PW, even with the new management change...

Seaport is nothing compared to PW. PW is mold under the barrel. Chuck is a good guy and he'll like Seaport. He and Rob know each other very well.
