DFW and ATL but not within driving distance. DFW is an 8 hour drive and ATL it 6. I live in north Mississippi. I'm an hour away from KMEM and could airline out if CASS were an option and the schedule had several days off in between.

Thanks for responding, hope this makes sense.

Nearly impossible to commute unless you live in the system (ie. you live in Clovis and can commute on company metal).

Don't hold you breath on BTQ getting CASS.

There's a good chance no one will be providing EAS service to PDT after the 1st of the year. USDOT has said Pendleton no longer qualifies for EAS subsidy. Strange that they would come up with that after asking for bids to serve PDT.

Even if the subsidy is reinstated, (which can happen), Boutique would still need to be given the contract. In spite of the City's request for service from BA, the contract has yet to be awarded.

Lies lol

But yeah, ATL is down two PIC's and an SIC in a month or two.

ATL FO's fly 40-45 hours a month, which is great with the 80 hour guarantee...not so much if you're wanting to build time.

Again thanks for the info, if the f/o' s are only flying 40-50 hours per month, are the captains also flying about the same? Also, how many pc-12's are based there and how many captains would the company prefer to be based there to be fully staffed?

Anyone have the estimate on hiring need for FO based in PHX and the number of flight hours a guy may expect the next couple months? Would the upgrade come for an SIC soon after 1200 hrs?

My situation: currently flight instructing on G1000 aircraft, have 900 TT with 600 dual given as CFI/CFII/MEI, 97 Multi, 80 night, 390 XC, been in flying 5 years and without gap as commercial for 1.5 years. College degree, no checkride failures.

I'd appreciate the reality on being hired by end of year based in PHX and an upgrade estimate from those informed with facts. Thanks
