Trying to get some current info on Grant Aviation and other Alaska operators. In regard to Grant:
What are the junior 208 bases? Any chance for Anchorage ? From my understanding housing is provided. Do they have a 2 week on/off schedule and can you commute/jump seat from lower 48? What can you expect to make per year for experienced 208 driver and any chances to make a little extra ?
Any thoughts on ERA ? not sure if they are hiring but pay looks tough for Beech FO If you had your choice which Alaska 135 would work for long term in regard to pay and equipment flown.
Thanks for any input!!

At Grant usually you will spend some time in the sled in Emmonak or Bethel, but the 208 upgrades have been pretty fast lately if you are qualified. Dillingham is possible for new guys. Anchorage is senior, I'd say you'll be waiting a couple years at least unless things have changed in the last few months.
In the bush housing is provided, 15/15 day schedule. Anchorage and Kenai are 20/10 day, no housing. Pay is a daily rate plus hourly.
I can't really speak for ERA, but I believe they will soon be called Ravn Alaska.
I hope that helps.
