Yes, all of our pay scales are the same across the board. Currently, the 767 rarely, if ever, breaks 64 hr guarantee, but I know on the 747 (assuming the same on the 777), I’m personally averaging 95-100hrs/mo. It won’t always be like that, but we are currently flying our butts off.

So you saying there’s a chance.

Can anyone in the know confirm/deny if there is any official way that current K4 pilots can recommend applicants?
I've also heard its common for them forget about some applications due to the sheer volume of hiring going on.
Would it be unwise to call HR to remind them or is it more of a 'don't call us, we'll call you' type situation?

Yes, have them use the "recommendations" form in the forms section of Comply365 to recommend a pilot.

I can't specifically comment on your HR questions...I'm not sure.

I wouldn't contact them unless you've heard something. Let your contact at the company do the bugging on your behalf.

Default Got the call for the interview!

Hello all. Got the phone call a couple of days ago and am beyond excited to finally have a go at my dream job and dream company. Anybody got any of the latest updates of what exactly the interview is like? I’ve been studying like heck for the compass test using the free portion on UAE’s site at the recommendation of a fellow K4 pilot that used it and did well, practicing basic and long division type math, etc. What can anyone advise me on as far as what else to expect. Thank you so much in advance!

Congratulations. I think a good start is going through this thread page by page. There is a lot of very good information about K4 and the processes involved. Aviation interviews.com has been mentioned as a good source of interview information.
