HIRED BABY!!!!

[FlyBullFly]

Just got the call!!! Hired by Colgan for the August class. CAN'T WAIT!!! Happy to be getting out of the freight life. In case you were wondering, my times were 760 TT 145 Multi 100 Turbine. I was SIC typed on the Shorts 360. Love to go celebrate but I have to fly tonight.

WHHOOOO HHHOOOO:nana2:

Congrats. I like to see people getting hired. did you get your time from flying freight or instructing.

 

[FlyBullFly]

instructed for about 200 hours then got on with AirNow flying freight 135. That's where I built up the multi time.

 

[buffalopilot]

how did you get air now with such low times?

 

[FlyBullFly]

Shorts 3-60 F.O. they wanted low time pilots so they could keep you for a while to build time. I think they are looking for 1 or 2.

Don't quote me on that though.

Wouldn't it have been better to upgrade on the Shorts? And I thought Airnow had a training contract?

"In other news, Business Air dba Air Now is thought to of implemented a training contract for its new hires..."

 

[Blue Side Up]

i have always seen flying freight as an option for me. thanks Bull for telling how you got there.

AirNow was fine for the freight gig. If interested just send in your resume to the website, if you meet requirements you'll probably get a call very quickly. The Shorts are based right now in SAV. Loved it but looking forward to moving on.

 

[FlyingNole]

Did you get the Saab or Beech?

so you"loved it" for three months and now your ready to move on?

 

[scoobs]

Doesn't Airnow have a training contract? Do you think you will upgrade faster at Colgan?

that's what I was thinking, and to colgan nonetheless. I guess I could understand if he went to netjets or something...but to a regional? uhhh...huh?
