Currently working on a day off get you $300-$500 per day extra on top of your overtime rate.
Thanks. That's makes me feel good because I sure will pick up as much as I can legally.

Some do. Don’t underestimate however how tiring 13 hour days in rough weather can be... Especially before you get settled in and are still learning a lot...

Yep. But you can maybe get to the northeast as an FO and then find you can’t hold it as a captain at least to start...

Hey guys, I'm thinking of working for Cape air as a FO...but I want to make sure that this is the right move (because there's a contract involved). Are there any new FOs here who want to share their experience? What are some of the negative things about the airline? What are the best things? Would you recommend working at Cape Air? I would really appreciate any piece of information.
Thank you all.

Just surfing the board...I did not work for Cape, but flew 402s, if you actually like to fly and improve your stick and rudder skills this is a good move. Manual manipulation of an airplane is becoming very scarce. I put in 7 years or so in Boeing simulators, and a line check pilots for years,and the pilots with Cape background excelled.

Thank you, I agree with you that stick and rudder skills are slowly disappearing. Everyone's told me that cape air pilots have a great reputation. So I just might do it.

This may seem like a completely stupid question, and I apologize in advance if it is; but...

What is the pax cellphone policy at Cape Air?

IOW, is a pilot sitting there all day having his or her every move video-recorded by nine cellphones, or are the pax required to turn them off and/or stow them during flight?

TIA for any responses.
