Like Gchamp says AirNet has sort of a pool these days.

We just got bought up and there seems to be some sort of transitional period going on right now. Management is very hush hush about the whole thing.

All I know is that we are interviewing at a normal pace and officially there are no training classes scheduled. I expect classes to start soon.

Yes we are also interviewing for the SIC program still! Competitive times seems to fluctuate with our immediate need for 135 qualified pilots. If the need is high the closer you need to be to the 135 minimums. The less pilot we need (immediately, not long term) the less time is required. My guess would be 600-800 hour range. Keep updating your online app and call the recruitment department regularly will not hurt you either.

I do belive LCK would be relatively easy to be assigned as an SIC.

I was hired a little bit ago and I am currently in the pool, I graduate in August and will have 135 mins, I know junior bases change pretty frequently but does anyone know what is junior right now as far as pic in the props?

I spoke with Walter Robinson and the competitive times are 800TT, 25ME, 25Instrument.

There are no junior bases. It just depends on whats available when you pass your checkride.

They just called me and told me "although it is not unusual for us to hire people with your amount of hours, we typically try to get someone with more experience. We are interested in you however and will keep your application on file. Just be sure to update it often."

I took it as, not enough hours kid, try again another time. Nothing personal i'm just not competitive. Is there anyone out there who wants a low time bandit to fly for them??????

Cant afford CFI/II tickets right now, getting laid off from my job in a couple of months.

ok so people who got hired recently any idea how long the wait is in the pool. i'm heading out there in a week or so for an interview to the SIC job to build about 200 tt to get to 135 mins, and i'm curious whether if offered a job im gonna sit around in a pool for 8 months. thanks

had a fam flight last monday but it was cancelled due to the fact that they're changing the way the fam flight is operated...I was really looking forward to it. ah well, guess i'll keep instructing to get close to 135 mins

I got a July 21st class date but I interviewed a while back while I was still in school, but my buddy interviewed two weeks ago and is in the same class so for him it was about three weeks??? Hope that helps best of luck with your interview!

I know things can change in the blink of an eye, but what is the latest word on AirNet interviewing for the right seat? I'm currently flying the right seat on the Beechcraft 99 at a 135 cargo company, and I'm trying to see if I have any other options out there.
