Jetsuite X 135s
 

A couple of questions,

Does anyone know how the Emb-135 California flying is doing?

Are there still plans to add more aircraft and routes?

I know they are hiring, but what can a new FO expect in terms of training, pay, and schedules?

finally, what is the upgrade potential for someone already rated on the EMB 135/145?

any info is appreciated.

Thanks.

They just began their San Jose- Burbank route, and as far as I know the expansion plan remains the same. That's all I got.

Thank you..

And I think they're upgrading the Phenom fleet to the 300 as well. Ok that's really all I got...at this time.

All correct. The Vegas flights are killing it between BUR-LAS. The SJC-BUR has just started so it's going to take time. We also have some other nice routes in the works. Plan is to have quite a few airframes by the end of the year.

The Phenom side (where I am) is doing a revamp on the interior as we speak and rumor is we may have our first -300 by the end of the year, of course that's TBD.

All in all, a great place to hang your hat, quality of life is great and we do some fun flying.

Glad to see some happy passengers. Nice work!

Will you answer the pay, training, and schedule questions?

Pay is day rate. Average between 16-19 days a month with opportunity to pick up more with productivity pay and long day pay. Company credit card for hotels, crew meals etc....training on our side (phenom) is at CAE, I know the 135's are done at FSI. Great place to work, awesome pilot group and MX is great.

I'll rephrase the question:
How much do you make... in American dollars... on each of those "day rate" days?

Are they still hiring on the Citation jet? Is Paul Proffet still there?
