Spirit itself does not have a PIC requirement to get hired. I was having a discussion with a member of the interview board and he was quite adamant that they will hire someone without the 500 PIC.

Of course, that means you gotta know somebody on the inside. More than a few, actually.

1/2 of my class never went to a job fair.
I have def been working on this. A family friend of mine was doing the spirit job fairs for a while and knows a lot of the right people. It's just of a matter being a squeaky door I guess.

Honestly, with 3600 TT, unless you are a military pilot, you will need that 4,000TT to get hired/interviewed.

So yeah, you are kind of in a cruddy spot at the moment. Not enough hours for the TT requirement and not enough PIC 135/121 to attend a job fair.

Get your 4000 TT and you will have to have your internals raid the Miramar office to try and get you noticed. You will need big help from them if you are to have any chance.

Good luck

Bedsides? As in bedside manners? It's customary Spirit bedside manner to steal your wallet and pack of Marlboros on the way out the door, leaving you with an empty pack of Virginia Slims and the bill.

How are the daily schedule like?

Not an airline guy, so have no clue on how it works.

Do you have early shows, done by midday? How many hrs off do you get?

Do you have late shows, done in late evening? how many hrs off do you get?

Thanks!

I assuming min rest is around 13 hrs per regulations on average, but what is the max rest one can have at a layover?

How long is a duty day (average)?

Max of 10 hrs of flying in a day, is that right?

Thanks!
