Nope. I'm a beech 1900 captain.

That would be correct.

I got an offer for seasonal. I'm a 10K hour guy with 4.5K hours on 73B's and 73C's working overseas as a TFW in somebody else's country looking to come home to roost. It does happen.

[watermeth]

how long after reference check do they send an offer ?

[hithere]

Is the offer for seasonal Captain or FO?

[watermeth]

interviewed for seasonal FO

Last Rumor is being an election year the feds are not too willing to accomodate Sunwing habit of getting non Canadian pilots for the winter season.
Apparently they were planning for over 100 for this winter.
So this might force Sunwing to hire DEC (direct entry Capt) for those with experience.
Good luck

Nope.

In-house upgrades. But prolly more seasonal F/O positions coming up soon.

I heard about over 80 seasonal Canadian pilots to be hired for this winter! And although not much is posted about it here, I heard lots of new of people being interviwed/hired at Sunwing these days.

[CMD-A]

44 upgrades and over 80 new hires.

[skypirate88]

Are there still interviews and calls going out, or have they filled all the spots?

[Maurice]

Does anyone know what size the fleet is expected to be this winter?

[rudder]

I believe that a poster on another thread said 32 Canadian registration and 6 wet lease from Europe.

Is there updates as to crewing and bases?

[aerosexual]

Interviews are completed, and I think so is hiring for the last ground school in early to mid November. In total with permanent and seasonal positions Sunwing has hired over 100 pilots this year. Not bad!

At Sunwing we want to fly higher when it comes to employment equity. We, therefore, encourage applications from Aboriginal peoples, women, members of a visible minority and persons with a disability.

...so what kind of disability would I need to be considered? Are we talking elephantitis or a club foot or do I need a mild mental retardation?
Not a serious question btw.

What is attrition like at Sunwing? In particular for the the seasonal pilots. For those who work there, do you see pilots getting the type rating and experience and bailing to be expats the MENA or Asia?
