Can anyone confirm, that PDT has a max checkride failures to get an interview? A collige recently received a TBNT email for both PDT and Envoy, and he is very qualified based on flight time (3500+). All of his busts where in primary flight training. He is currently flying single pilot ME turboprop part 135. I am trying to figure out if there is anything he might be overlooking other than the failures.

Does he have 121 time and an internal recommendation?

No, he doesn't have either unfortunately. It's hard to network doing the flying we do (based in the middle of nowhere NV). Any advise? I am positive he would appreciate it!

Worst case scenario he can go to mesa.

Looking for some insight on current EMB-145 lines out of KPHL...Are they 4-day, 3-day trips? Where are the overnights? How many legs per day? Is the open time (300% pay) expected to continue into 2017? Just generally interested in how things are looking on the 145/PHL trips. Thanks!!

Yes.. Most 4 day.. 3 day.. Some 2 day a few 1 day..


Overnights are growing and chancing every month.. Look at the current PDT route map on the website...good chance we overnight there.. Either dash or 145... Exception being there are airports that only a dash can go to.. Such as Hilton head.

If air whiskey continues down the path it's on.. I don't see triple premium.. More like 6x premium.

Yes... Three is the number. Recruiter told me when I was in CLT last month for training. I can't remember if it's three or more...... or more than three. But there is a hard limit. I don't know whether an internal would help in that situation or not. Maybe.
