Former Airnet. Where are you now?

[Ian_J]

Back in 2007 those of us at Airnet thought the world was our oyster. Where are we at now?

I'm in the National Guard - a (translated to civilian) helicopter chief pilot. Anyone make it to the majors?

.....

As to Airnet people, there are some around here. None, to my knowledge, are at "The Majors", but a couple have pretty sweet 91 gigs, IMS. I'm former freight, myself (although not at the Hairnet...couldn't have passed the training which apparently requires you to say your callsign first), and I'm working like a fieldhand for a JCer at one of the better 135s I've seen/heard of. The guy I'm flying with is a Hairnetter.

What is the big deal about asking where former airnet guys are?

I think he was referring to Proud Pilots attempt at trolling.

Huh?

I used to be original...

I thought you were the same guy. My bad, I was wondering what turned you into a troll.

'11-'12 alum here. Flying for a fractional now.

I was there back in '05-'06. I am now at a great 91 job.

People I talk to from there are all in different places, 135 and regional airlines.

Hired in '08 the day they announced the furlough of 55 pilots. Re-interviewed in '09 and never offered a class. Eagle in early '10. Still there.


Do I count?

Don't you love places that hire up until the day they furlough? Eagle used to do the same thing.

Nope, still deployed so I only get on every now and then. I'm sure I'll be my happy talkative self when I get back.

'06-'08 for me. I'm currently an Endeavor FO. Had a few furloughs between then and now.

I was wondering what your wife had to say about your lifestyle choices

'05-09 for me. Left for more 135 freight then 135 charter, now at a good 91 gig with three other Airnet guys.

 

[Stone Cold]

There are a couple I know at SWA. Other majors, I don't know officially, but they are there. I'm in the
G450, myself.
There are others in good gigs. And there are some (Pyka) who went backwards after going full tilt into Skybus.

Airnet->AMF->Part 91->Part91/135->Part 91 Management.

A lot are at jetBlue, Spirit, Southwest, Qatar and Emirates has some too.
