I've been offered a job with them several times.
They want a CFI and Co pilot for their beech jets.
For your beech jet training they co-sign a loan in your name and pay it as long as you're working there. If you quit early they stop paying the loan.

Any idea of how much flying you do?

It's a combination of 135 and 91. I've heard they work you to death but I've also heard consistently that you'll get 100 hours a month.

How much is the loan & what are the terms?

I think it was around 8k for a one year commitment.

How do you fly 100 hours a month in the middle of western KS? Is most of that CFIing?

If you look, they aren't in the middle of Kansas. If I was guessing they do a lot of charter for oil companies since they are located right over the Oklahom-Texas panhandle

You would be surprised. I think it's a lot of cattle execs too. The owners of Pizza Hut have a plane there that Lyddons manages too. I think they have 3-4 Beechjets, Conquest 1's and 2's, an Aerostar, 210, 172 and some others.
