No logical reason? How about the good old consultant word "synergy"? What if you strip out redundant costs and systems to help pay back some of the acquisition debt? Why would you want 2 marketing departments? Why not offer customers a "full range of aircraft types" so that customers seeking a lower price point don't shop elsewhere? Or offer a "one-stop shop"? I have heard it all before. Just give the consultants time....

Hi everyone.
One of my friends will be interviewing soon and has no idea what could be asked on the written test and/or sim eval. I did a search but couldn't find anything specific. Any intel would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Does TMC offer 8/6 like Gama/Wheels Up and Delta Private Jets? I thought they only offered 15/13 which is not conducive to any family life. Probably would help with recruiting/retaining pilots I would think...........

Schedules are:
8/6 - as explained above
15/13 - for those that want half the number of "Angry Tuesdays" or can't hold 8/6.
Reserve - Captains only. Max is 15/10 with an option to take 7 hard days each quarter (unpaid, and must be consecutive [i.e. no 4 days here, 3 days there. must all be taken at once or not at all]), the company breaks it down further (e.g. x days on = y days off where x<15 and y<10). When I was on it, my schedule was never consistent. I would often be home 15-25 days not getting paid and would call and beg to work. My understanding is that things are different now that it's for Captains only.
Info. is likely out of date: For each Pro Line Hawker, there are two Honeywell Hawkers. At least two of the Honeywells are on the market for sale (one currently pending). Yes, pilots fly both. Initial/recurrent is done in the PL21. A 4-hour (?) (can't remember exactly) course is done on differences. Then you get on the line and fly a lot of Honeywell equipment and learn OTJ. It's possible to not see a PL21 machine for several months at a stretch.

Hey Guys,
So I just have a few questions. First, how many pilots is TMC hiring? How hard is it to get hired at the bare minimum (1,000 TT, 500 PIC) all of it only being a CFI? How hard is it to get hired with no bachelors degree, just high school?
Thank you in advance for helping me!

About a dozen planes are (expected) to be parked for the summer. Don't know if it has happened yet.
Not sure what that means as they'll be overstaffed (properly staffed?!) until those planes come back online.
Attrition is still fairly high. If you want to get in. Keep trying.
Please read that last sentence over and choose wisely. With your time you could expect to be SIC-assigned for about six years (minimum).
If I were you, and it could somehow fit your lifestyle, I'd be beating down the the doors to every regional instead. You'll upgrade far, far faster.
