OK, here is what I have @mtsu_av8er @SeanD @wildfreightess @desertdog71 @Derg @Maurus
Started promptly at 8am, one was late because he forgot which timezone he was in....DON'T DO THAT!
Did extra paperwork for DOT
Did ATP question bank first -20 questions 10 mins
NOTE: At least 4 different tests, neighbors didn't have same test
Mach Tuck
Dutch roll (I didn't have but another did)
What to do after a TCAS RA
basic aerodynamic
squall line question
Wonderlic Test - 12 mins as many questions as you can answer
Only judged on number correct to number answered. Skip the ones you have questions on. Told needed to answer x amount but didn't tell us how many.
Company overview
$5000 bonus
$20,000 training contract only on 170/175 aircraft
$400 a week first 4 weeks then guarantee pay (first year $22.95 /75hr guarantee)
SEAT lock as FO except Q400 at 2yrs, but has to stay on certificate so only move to 170.
90 min call out RVS 3am-3pm, most done night before
no airport RVS
no junior manning
11 days off RVS /12 days if holding a line each month
Showed a proposed $30 rate first year as part of offer to union. $35.xx second year. No cap out to 9 years. No mention of change in per-diem from $1.65 on offer to union
Benefits. Sounded like company paid for employee but not sure. Forgot to ask for clarification.
40 CS300 aircraft 2015 options another 40.
20 hrs IOE Q400. 25hrs E145. No mention 170 but 10 more if you get E190
Currently looking for RAH Q400 and CHQ E145. Mention of 170 class out to NOV.
401k match 100% first 2.5% first year. It goes up from there
Training. 10days IND INDOC. 4 weeks STL or HOU E145, missed where Q. Done at FlightSafety
Roommate during training
After 90 days in IBT 1 3/8 %. Have to be in good standing with union to fly.
Anniversary month $200 allowance for uniform. Told to buy more then one shirt!
Jacket / Hat on time changes.
HR interview
TMAAT Emergency
TMAAT stress in cockpit
Heard CFI's got TMAAT with a bad student
Principal aircraft flown
Why RAH
Why you
Agree to training contract repay
Acknowledge FBI background check
Tech Interview
What is CRM
Today's METAR for PHL
Brief PHL 9L or 9R (2 interviews going on each using different one)
Can we circle to land with today's weather
Lights at runway
Proceed ILS approach with VOR FAF if VOR inop
What if GS inop (other interview), still land with current weather.
Sim
Oh no sim today. It won't boot. Think power supply. Will be informed if passed first part and if so invited back for sim. One pilot asked since they did ATP RJ Course if that would count. Told they had a person fail the RAH sim even though they passed the RJ Course.
Other comments
Over half of the 11 today want the 170 (one wants the 190), commenting they can fly the 145 anywhere. Concerns on canceled Q400 flights and no cancelation pay at RAH on going to the Q. We had a few from every industry. Mesa, CFI, 135 hawker, caravan driver from Tanzania, and even a lowly part 91 Cirrus driver. A Russian that didn't want to talk much about background but mentioned flying 737 one time in Russia. One from Bolivia that admitted to never flying a plane with constant speed prop, current flying a hawker. Most seemed to be upper 20's and up. I'm not too sure if I was the oldest one there or not at 48.
I'm hoping to get the call to come back for the sim.
Anyone else interviewing there soon?
I did see @jtrain609 in ORD on my return, he was leaving on a flight out of the gate next to mine.
