I live in ABQ, fingers crossed. Sounds like a sweet gig.
Which base did you apply for? DFW and PHX are pretty full on captains right now.

I don't believe I mentioned a specific base, but I'm expecting DEN, if anything. I know they have several flights from Abq to silver city, etc but understand from what I've read on this forum that ABQ is no longer a domicile.

How much are the DEN folks flying these days?

How is the King Air working out so far? Assuming it is hard to get if coming in as a new hire?

Any talk of when (if ever) more will be added to the fleet?

Dig through previous posts in this thread and you'll find some info on the interview. It's a pretty straight forward interview and nothing to sweat.

Good luck.

Default Btq sic

Hello! New to the post so please bear with me. Just had a few questions if anyone could answer I would be very much appreciative!

Commercially Rated S/MEL with IR but out of the game for several years. Approx 250TT looking to get on with a 135 carrier as SIC. Trained in the upper Midwest and am currently an aircraft dispatcher for a 121 Carrier out of MSP for past several years. With the arrival of BTQ into MSP and the takeover of EAS into TVF and I'm sure many more to come based on their business model and better efficiency of operating into those markets, it has piqued my interest into getting back into the game so to speak.

I am interested in growing with a company and have heard great things about BTQ thus far.

My questions are, given length of time (approx 7 years) since the bulk of training (although will be getting back into currency all together shortly), with such low hours but over 5 years of dispatch and crew related experience of flight/load planning, opspecs, IFR planning for a regional airline, would that be considered mildly competitive for an SIC position?

What are the base assignments like? I saw that base assignments are awarded at time of GS but commuting non feasible, what is the time frame like for base transfers (if LAX based for example, transfer to MSP)

Is there a sim associated with the interview post verbal interviews?

Thank you very much for your time and I appreciate any help or advice you could give!

Thank you once again!

Interviews are over the phone so no sim. 250 is quite low. They would likely want at least twice that. 500+ is competitive for an SIC position.

Hey hey,
I applied last week for a sic position. 2 days later I got the automated response saying thanks for the application and they're reviewing it etc.
Did all of you that got an interview receive the same one first? Or is that their nice way of saying "thanks but no thanks"?
