They were both in uniform, wearing company ID. I wanted to go talk to them, however my passengers showed up and I had to go. Sounds like pretty good duty to me. Similar to what I am doing now, but with good equipment.

It's just part of the incentive package that was negotiated. I flew with a guy who had done the charter gig and gone back to the line, and he said he was only logging about 30 hours a month.

everytime i look at the minimums vs. hearing them from an employee of xjet, there always different...

here there always listed at 600/100 (and on the internet) while the 5 people I know at exjet, one in HR, says that there lower and more of a case by case situation....can someone at least tell me if they have heard this or is this just a coincidence that there all saying this

thanks

Just apply and see for yourself. What could it hurt? I know Republic gave me an interview and I did not meet their minimums.

I actually spke with an XJet captain at the gliderport this weekend who said they were really HIGHER. He said they're looking to hire guys with about 1000 or so because too many low timers were washing out of training.

As for other info, here's some stuff he said about himself: Been at company about 3 years, bottom 25% of captain seniority at EWR, month to month schedule goes back and forth between lines and reserve, and is making close to $80K with per diem.

Just hearsay, could be all crap.

And if any of ya'll are wondering about Colgan upgrade times, one of the instructors I used to fly with was at the gliderport. He's been at Colgan a little over a year now and will be upgrading on the Saab next month. Keep in mind though he was hired with like 4000 hours. And he actually says he loves working at Colgan.

Yes that is all crap about XJT. I work a lot as a solid line holder as a CA on 8 year pay ( top 25% of company) and I barely make over 80K. I also find it hard to believe that our minimums are higher. Not from what I hear and the people I fly with.
