The complaints about open time already hitting. It's September people. It happens every year. Kiwi introduces new resolution to keep all open time in all bases to herself in 3.2.1...

I could only find the one from 04'. Is first year pay still 40?

Current region captain with shrinking base. 3000TT 500PIC. Would you guys recommend applying?
No, it dropped to $38.50...

Seriously, cant even make that up.

Spirit is better than any regional unless you currently live in base and love it there. IF you can afford the FO pay here, apply, but dont apply if your plan is a quick upgrade (gone) and hopes for a incredible contract in the future.

Thanks for the info. I do live in base but it seems to have a questionable future. 38/hr is not ideal. Hopefully a new contract is around the corner for you guys!

Bombardier website shows the CS300 with a max configuration of 160 seats.. Not too shabby.

I read somewhere that the spirit config would remove a layer of paint from the aft bulkhead, permitting 2 more rows of seats



That's also a total lie, but it feels truthy eh?

Believe AFG built a new building. Think that's what took so long. All the flooding caused delays.

The training dept is very impressed with it.

The training department (and everyone else) is impressed with anything outside of Sheltair!

Welp, I didn't want to post until I was completely done with training. Alllll done! Spirit was fun for a while but turned into a complete disaster thanks to Jyri, Bendo & Bob. I hope you all get a TA soon. There is a lot of money to be made elsewhere. (And boy what a an eye opener how professional an organization can be)
