PSA Known Conditions -- Employement
Disclaimer.....I am not looking to start any sort of debate on this airline. I just would like some insight on operations and pay.....
So with that said here goes....
Does anyone out there have advice or information on PSA? I am looking to get a job with them in the near future. The website has the following posted:
To be considered, candidates must meet the following minimum qualifications:
Commercial, Instrument and Multi-engine rating
First Class Medical
FCC License
Valid Passport
Does anyone know if this is true??
Also, what is the average time on reserve? Is there an opportunity to make more than just the $23 or $24 that most regionals start out at?
If anyone has insight into this particular airline I would appreciate it.

You don't have any prior-121, do you...Why the Maddog1974 handle?
All I can tell you about PSA is that pay-rates are fixed, just like any other airline. You're going to start out at first-year pay no matter what. And if you meet the posted-mins (comm. MEL), why not apply? Would they lie about their hiring mins ? Keep in mind that with 300 hours you won't be very competitive.

You can earn more if you work in the training dept. Sim instructors get 5th year capt pay from what i understand.
Don't know if we are going to be hiring any more. Things have slowed down. Plus with ATA, Skybus... closing up there are a bunch of very qualified pilots out there. I would expect them to be taking instructor jobs. Well PSA would be smart to hire them.
Go get your CFI and build up some time until you can qualify for a job.

Those mins are correct. They will consider you for the job, but you will need to have atleast 600-700 hours to be competitive. And with 600-700 hours you will need someone to reffer you to be able to get an interview. And even with that it will take a couple of weeks to get an e-mail. But we have went from two classes a month to one. Due to the lack of Sim time was what I was told. Its a good place to work it has its ups and down like everywhere else. Good luck.

I walked in a friend's resume a couple weeks ago and they have not heard back. They are really slowing down the hiring as of right now. I was told by Lisa that they would have one more interview date but not sure of when that will be. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

My class has had a month off between ground school and sims, I really think they're trying to clear out the sims so they don't pay us to take a vacation. Of course they might just be slowing because the market seems unstable and everyone else is slowing hiring. The company has been fair to everyone I know, so far no complaints.
