Is FRE hiring FOs for BE-99s and how many hrs per month can a new FO expect?

Metalbikemayhem 11-29-2015 01:28 PM

We're hiring. Not to many 99 fo's though. Most fo's would be for the 1900's, 350's, or the emb 120. Hrs all depend on what plane you're in. The 1900 gets the most hrs following by the emb 120's then 350's.

Thanks! Any idea of my chances with the following times?
651 TT; 230 X-C PIC; 120 Inst; 51 night; 18 ME.
Interested in the 6 month training contract option on the 99s.

I'm on the outside looking in, but probably not good. I interviewed there a yr ago, and they seemed like an outfit that couldn't do much for you until you hit 135 mins. Even then, I think you'd go into the 402 first.
You're well on your way though.

Does M.R. still work there? Mister I Wear My Sunglasses At Night?

We're all turbine now, 402's have been parked since early summer 2015. We hire FO's for 1900, King Airs, and emb 120's. The 99's are rarely flown with an FO.

Going to apply within the next couple of days.

Do you know how much do people usually fly per month?
What are those training contract worth?

Thanks!
