Realistic TT for Jazz or Encore?

[ehv8oar]

Depends on how the job was advertised as well. If the operator misrepresents the job, which used to be fairly common in certain medevac ops, I don't blame people for leaving.

A bond usually has a reason. That reason is seldom advertised. Great companies don't need bonds.

Exactly correct. Funny how they never mention there's a 99% chance we'll load you up so everyday is a 14 hour day.

It's not just hours. I have +5000TT, ATPL, 3700 ATR, 2000 PIC, aviation university BUT last flight in 2016. No referral as well. Applied for both Jazz and Encore and haven't received a call. Looking for 703 jobs now to be current again and apply after 1 year.

OOF, That much time and no call?

Yep. I always hear they don't have FO's with enough experience to be promoted so I think it would be worth a try, just give me a SIM eval to see how it goes. But anyway, it is what it is. I can't sit and cry. Going for 703 and will try again in 1 year.

If you don't mind..,

Why did you stop flying for 3 years?

I dunno: food?

I don't have quite his numbers, but I am in the same boat: no calls, MSc (unrelated to aviation), ran a successful business for almost 20 years.

People don't want old.

Apparently i spoke too soon. I won't say who, but things are looking up.
