First officers is a different story.

In the meantime, how tough is it to commute without CASS?

We have an agreement with Southwest and Virgin America, its cabin only, i get around a lot with southwest, they're really good.
We can only hope CASS comes around soon, and than it will be easier, we have some airlines which we have already talked to, but we need CASS to make it happen. So CASS will open many doors.

I have 320TT and just finished up Commercial ASEL. I was wondering, for 135 SIC positions like Boutique and Mokulele, would it be wise to have a fresh instrument proficiency check before going into an interview. Or does the ground and flight training they do take care of instrument currency. I have not done approaches in a year. I am refreshing my knowledge of IFR ops currently. I would just like to know if its necessary or not to spend the $$$ on an IPC.
Thanks!
Thanks!

It would be beneficial to you both during the interview and training. I know personally I can get rusty on IFR knowledge really quick unless I constantly review certain topics.
But it's highly recommended .

It's a great company. Attrition is not something we're seeing so far. More movement than anything. You always have some negative people, and those people seem to be showing their way out.
