So with all the pilots leaving and lowering of the mins, is that a sign people are not “happy” at Sun Country and they come in for the type and leave? Or just a sign of the times of hiring at better majors?
Considering if it’s worth a tough commute for a couple of years or not.

Does anyone have information on the interview/study guide ? I was going to use airlineinterviews, but the group of pilots is so small I’m not sure if that website is up to date.
Some questions.
What is pay during training ?
What is Min guarantee when on reserve?
They mentioned a hogan test for the interview. Any way to prepare for this? I’ve heard a lot of guys who take this test at United fail , unless they are different test / different passing requirements.
Thanks !

Minimum guarantee is 75 hours first year. 70 hours second year and beyond.
Have no idea about the hogan and interview. They removed the pilots from the process when they would tell the applicants the truth when they asked a question... Now they lie to you to get you to sign the training contract. Management doesn’t want you to think and realize you are eating a turd sandwich... Don’t believe much of what they tell you. Ask a pilot there to give you the truth.

No way to prepare for the Hogan. It's a moving target from company to company. Each company can test for particular attributes it wants in its candidates. What passes for United might fail for Sunny, etc... When I took it I was told not to over think it. I'm kinda dumb so that wasn't difficult... If you take it don't try to answer the way you think they want. Just be honest and don't try to game it.
