Default XJET mins

I was just checking up on XJET mins today and could not find them. Last time i checked they were 600/100. But on the web site it does not say anything about the hour req. Is the 600/100 still the min req???

Out of all I could find, the mins are still the same which isn't all that bad.

I was at SFO today at Signature FBO. I saw two expressjet guys getting into a beechjet. Is that part of the charter side of the operation?

Nope...not our guys. EMB145/135 is all we fly.

Mins are still 600/100, and more than likely will stay that way for a while.

Why does the Charter group of Xjet pay 90 hours guarantee vs the 75 on the line?

Where are you based for charter - do a lot of guys want that or not? What is the upside and downside of that gig?

Thanks

Must have been a side job then. How is the QOL on the charter side of the company.

Home based for charter. You will never hold it. It goes very, very , very senior. With only 14 CA and 14 FO on the bid and 3,000 pilots look at the odds.

They probably weren't XJT pilots. The QOL depends on what you are looking for. You are home based. The company will buy you a ticket to where ever they need you. You only get 14 days off and no set schedule. So you are on call, but with the home base it isn't like a two hour call and get to an airport. The pay is good. You will not fly very much. Lots of sitting around in hotels. So it depends if that is what you like.

I'm sure most of the time it is better than flying a line.
