Quote: It is the Intel Shuttle. They shuttle the employees of Intel (Computer company) around. Similar to the limited shuttle out of CMH.
Ok, thanks. Is it out and backs home every night, or still 8&6?

The schedules are pretty chill:

2/3 days max per week to the same airports. Some guys bored to death. An occasional 4 trips a week with some pilots having been recalled or moved on. No overnights unless a temporary staffing shortage dictates. Not bad for captains pulling 90K & a solid schedule! Each base has it's own personality. A former XO guy who transferred to the commuter side at one of the bases didn't like the atmosphere there & wanted a return to the XO side. Was rejected. West coaster when hired. Interestingly, some east coasters who were hired east coasters have chosen the two week schedule to move out west. BUT, they have to pay out of their own pockets commuting to work & back as a result.

I have applied about 6 times over the last 4 years, 7600tt, 8 type ratings, 4 turbo prop, 4 jet. Not a peep. If you find out what they are looking for clue me in.

XOJET is currently hiring into a pool pretty much for attrition only right now. A friend of mine just got on with these guys and said internal recs and living on the east coast is everything. Also, very much a customer service oriented company, so customer service experience and experience dealing with executives and high profile customers is just as important as flight time and type ratings. Flying is only a fraction of the job is the way he put it to me.

One of the bases is Phoenix Gateway. Another is Hillsboro, OR. Maybe a 3rd in Sacramento area but not sure.

No. Totally different company. Pretty strict hiring mins, including 2000 multi PIC, IIRC. Sacramento base is MHR. In need of a chief pilot too, out-going guy took his 121 recall

I'm looking at their web site now; and all I see are openings on the shuttle side - nothing on the charter side. Is anyone out there seeing (or hearing) anything different?
