Some what depressing circumstance. They have a email only policy regarding first contact. In my opinion they are a moderately high risk airline, as they wont provide any 'instrument training', and expect you to go there current on instruments. The quality of the personnel, especially those recruiting is low. A response one of the hiring managers gave me was "Yea good luck with that. You obviously can’t read very well.", in response to my question about their $8000 training contract. It's at that point I decided their bad attitude wasn't worth my time, money, or effort.
Apparently the contract is written specifically to keep them from being liable for your leaving early.
$1300.00/mth to start; after 90 days, $1500.00/mth; after 1 year $1700.00/mth and raises every year thereafter.
What is the work schedule? 5 days on, 2 days off. Workdays are 6-14 hours long (can change) depending on the daily schedule. You will fly from 6-12+ legs per day. We a 24 hour, 365 day a year operation and scheduling can be at anytime during day/night. We do currently have day and night shifts.
How many hours of flight time will I get? 50-100 hours of flight per month.
What is the pro-rated training contract? This is an $8,000.00 training contract with the airline. The contract is 12 months in length. Should you leave employment (voluntary or involuntary) prior to the end of the 12-month period, you will be required to pay the balance of the contract. The balance due on the contact will decrease by 1/12th every 30 days of employment following the date you pass your check ride with Pacific Wings LLC. |
