Default Think Gulfstream's Bad?

Get a load of this:

They've updated their website !

Fly the Boeing 727 as a Paid Airline Pilot within 10 Months.
The Professional Airline Pilot Program combines the Commercial Pilot Training Course and the Jet First Officer Training Course into one program.

The actual number of weeks required to complete each course vary depending on the individual student’s training schedule and progress based on the student’s proficiency.


Jet University provides the only First Officer Part 121 Jet Internship Program, including a 6-month minimum flying contract with a Part 121 Boeing 727 carrier. In 6 months, you will earn $30/flight hour which is more than twice the normal Regional Airline pay.

During the 6 months contract, you will fly the Boeing 727 into most of the busiest airports in the US, as well as experiencing international flying into Canada, Mexico, Central and South America. Our airline internships represent a unique opportunity for the low time pilot to acquire real Part 121 experience and Boeing 727 Jet Aircraft time.

If you haven’t started flying yet, Course 100 is the prerequisite to all the other courses. If you already have your Commercial and Instrument Certificates with Multi-engine rating, you can start with either Course 200 or 500. If you have either 1,500 hours Total Time (including 250 hours multi-engine piston) or 500 hours Total Time with 250 hours of turboprop, you can start with either Course 400 or 401.

Course 100: Commercial Pilot Program
Course 200: Jet First Officer Program
Course 300: Fast Track Airline Pilot Program (Course 100 & 200)
Course 400: Jet Second in Command Program (250 flight hours)
Course 401: Jet Second in Command Program (500 flight hours)
Course 500: Jet Flight Engineer Program

The real question is, how much are they charging? I couldn't find a single price $ number on their website.

Gulfstream charges $30k for their program, and that's for a Beech 1900.

These people are probably gonna charge $50k+ and the sad thing is, they probably already have a huge line formed...

Anyone know what Part 121 B727 airline they fly for ? Which airline has "agreed" to this ?


If you thought Gulfstream was bad, this has gotta be worse!
