thats cool...so if someone pulls the full duty day they're looking at close to 40 the first year.

43.6k if you're willing to work the max duty day 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. It's really good $$ but damn that's a LOT of working for "the man"!!! I think this will be a good thing for not only Flight Express pilots, but for other pilots too. |

yah you'd be livin at the fbo durin the week, but you could easily get some bills paid off on that kinda money, while gettin time, and settin yourself up really good for whatever you wanted to do next. CONGRATS to the flight express guys/gals. |

| Max duty run is long, but cake. You sit in the FBO, watch movies, and sleep. Really . . . a couple of hours of flying, and lots of reading!!!

It'd be a nice gig for me in a few years if there was a base (FTY) that I could manage to get out of training |

![]() I will tell you this . . . you absolutely NEVER know what you'll get out of training. I REALLY wanted BNA out of training, and if I had been in training a month earlier, I'd have been there pretty quickly. However, I waited before taking the gig, and ended up in MO for 6 months! It's just like that crystal ball the 121 guys are always talking about!!

Crap, an Airnet/Ameriflight/Flight Express throw down. I have a bad feeling Lloyd would win the fight, but we get multi time from the get go AND we're on the west coast! (That last little bit will really get Lloyd going, he's from the bay area) |
