Less than what they should, but more than it would take to stop the furloughed pilot group from applying.

So with your hashtag you’re saying a career at Fox flight is better than a career at air canada financially?

That's what you took from it?

I almost want to say yes, just to see how far off the rails this goes.

I had an interview there a few years ago. From what I recall FO pay was around 50K and captain around 80K.

Yes, I took your comment about being more than flat pay (which it’s not) that it’s a better financially. What else should I took is as? You want to be an internet troll and compare the pay, then that’s what anyone who reads it will assume you’re getting at.

Hashtag is pretty straight forward. If I wanted to trigger the AC diehards I would've written #stillbetterthanflatpayandacareeratbigred. But that's a long #, not likely to trend anytime soon. You never know though after the AT merger and cargo contract. Projecting much?

Well I’m certainly not an AC diehard or even an AC employee but not hard to see you’re delusional or bitter... or both. But if you want to try to pretend like a career at a 704 medevac company is better have at it, as good as fox flight may or may not be.

Never pretended. I don't think I've ever been described as bitter, an ass perhaps, especially when I'm ribbing someone. I don't think delusional applies here as I never advocated that Fox Flight was a smart choice long term. Got anything else?

How am I being a snowflake or troll? What I am saying that’s untrue or troll like and what I am bitter about? I really have no dog in this fight, just calling someone out for stating things that are untrue.

The joke is, starting pay at a garbage 704 medevac company is on par with one of the most exclusive airline gigs in the country. That's the joke you seem to be missing. It was a joke....haha...no? Goodness me. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

I am all out of popcorn so I will try to get us back on track. I can't answer the question of what Fox pays but I can tell you that they have an abundant supply of pilots who are willing to do it for less if it gets them back in a seat. Supply and demand will dictate pay at Fox just as it dictates the acceptance of flat pay at AC.

As an unemployed individual I would not consider applying to Fox. (Period)

Ask around any fbo and it will not take long to find several who are ecstatic having left 40k in the hole. The few that I have met have either paid the bond as agreed upon, were taking to court as agreed upon, or are actively looking for a financial solution to muster up the full amount of the bond as it is not pro rated. Speaks volumes on quality of life as well as how the place is operated.

Two cents, don't sign the bond.... but you know as well as I do the next guy being interviewed will, so why waste your time.

I would say this is a valid assessment.

For those new hear, it can be painful, but eventually your question will be somewhat answered. You can always apply and get the facts and then decide to turn it down. What have you got to loose?
