Cape Air?

[clayfenderstrat]

I recently saw a Cape Air plane here in Evansville, Indiana. After checking out their website, they sounded like a good company to work for. Does anybody know anything about them? Minimums, salary, schedules, experiences, bases, any info would be helpful.

Thanks

The minimums are posted on their site. 1000 hours for a FO and 1500 for captains. I’m going to try and weasel my way in with much less hours to sit right seat on the Indiana runs.
Flying a light twin around the Caribbean all winter sounds like a great gig to me!

Being a New Englander.....I've seen them as long as I can remember. Although I am still a youngster at the age of 26 compared to some other people around here. I was actually looking at them as a viable option for me here being based out of New England once I start and complete all of my training and instruct for at least a year to get my hours up to the mins where I can start to be competitive. Though, that is still a while off for me here but definitely a good place and a good option.

There mininums are 500 hours...However, I spoke with their pilot recruiter and had a good laugh with him when he told me that the last two applications he recieved were guys that had 500 hours and a Boeing 737 Type rating. If you want to fly for Cape, get your CFI and II and build time so you can upgrade quickly. From what I took from our conversation the MEI isn't so important, but they look highly on the I and II.
