Recruiting is a little backed up with hiring right now. There is a pool of applicants that have done phone screening and tech interview still waiting to head out to Sacramento for interview. One week vacation for first few years then goes to two weeks a year. Basically one 8 day rotation off, equals three total weeks off. While pay is still on low side, we have a great group of pilots here and enjoy going to work. We have an unofficial "union" here which fights on pilots behalf for better pay and working conditions all the time. It is a very dynamic type of flying, and if you don't like to do anything but fly ,AKA the airlines ,this is not the place for you. I have flown 135 for most of my career and this is the best company so far i have worked for. Good luck to everyone that has applied! If you enjoy 135 flying, this is the place for you.
