Good luck to those applying. I know nothing about them other than they used to (and I think still do) fly Cessna Caravans and ATRs for FedEx.

Wouldn't be jet experience but they are Part 121.

They also do the ATRs in Hawaii for Hawaiian airlines but I am not sure where that is going after Hawaiian purchased Island Airs operating certificate.

I did a phone interview with the about a year ago and it's the first interview I ever left knowing I'd actually refuse the job if offered. Luckily I got a TBNT from them and went to a large 121 carrier a week later. They were less interested in dispatch and seemed more interested in trip planning stuff. Things like hotels, permits, coordinating MX etc. How would you handle this, how would you coordinate that type of questions. You still dispatch, but there are apparently additional functions to the job too. It wasn't for me, but if that sort of thing interests you then it's probably not a bad place to be.

What were they offering for a salary?

When I applied (and got a TBNT) it wasn't much. Less than $14 an hour I think.

Wow. Just for some historical perspective, that’s what Air Wisconsin was starting people at almost 20 years ago.

Dang.

Say what?! I interviewed with them probably 4 years ago now and they were offering me $16/hr. I can't believe it would've gone down!

I was offered $20 to start when I interviewed with them. Ultimately turned it down. Not sure if its a starting pay scale or a "based on experience"

Hmm... different per person I guess.
