Friend of mine worked there...out of ST. Louis. His day started at 3am and finished at around 6pm.
It was single pilot, night IFR in a crap plane. This job will age you and put hair on your b*lls.
Friend of mine worked there out of ST. Louis. His day started at 3am and finished at around 6pm, monday thru friday with weekends off. He flew the C-210 with the normal six pack and 1 VOR and 1 NDB. No GPS or DME. No back up instruments. It was single pilot, night IFR in a crap plane. This job will age you and put hair on your b*lls.
Impossible statement. A realistic viewpoint would come from a pilot who is or was actually employed there. Please take "friend of mine" statements with a grain of salt.
See above statement.
FLX doesn't (or didn't, at least) do required rest on layovers unless your plane broke and they got you a hotel. Your naps in the FBO were on the clock.
I might go there once I break 2000TT or so, if I decide to leave Alaska before I finish school. It's a good gig, I've never (never) heard anyone complain about it.
You must not be listening because I've never heard any pilot not bitch about something.
