DEC hiring

[AmNotAnonymous]

Hi all
Does anybody know if they still hire DEC ? Also how firm are they on the PIC hours ? I need 30h to meet the threshold lol


Edit : 300h not 30

Super strict. You might need to rent a C152 and get the hours.

These 30 hrs in the C152 doing circuits can save lives!

Why would you want to go there to fly all night for $138/hr as the lowest paid widebody captain on planet Earth? Go to Porter and make double that.

It’s clear that this person isn’t qualified to be a Cargojet DEC, missing 30 hours of PIC……. So mewt point.

To be clear, you have 5000 hours TT and 2970 transport jet PIC?
I mean, if this is the case round up to 3k for Christ sake, by the time you interview, if you’re still working, you’ll have it but it’s close enough for any rational person.
If I was asked how much time I have, it would be 16000, not 15982(made up number, I actually have no idea), 16k is close though

It’s a legal requirement to keep track of your hours. Saying you don’t know basically means you’re a criminal.

I keep “track”, I just don’t know what my total time is because I don’t add them up, Jazz keeps track of my 30, 60, 90, 365 so what do I care if I’m at 15000 or 16000 or whatever, the entries are there just not totaled, so maybe I get a spanking. However, 30 years of flying T.C has looked at my logbook one time for the ATPL, so I’m probably ok.

how to be a Karen on the internet 101. We all keep track of our hours, we stopped caring what they were well past 10000

lol. You gotta keep up. Cdnavater and I have a great avcanada relationship. If you think I was actually serious about this then you clearly need to update your logbook.

It isn't. You only need to keep track of your hours as proof that the flight you're doing is legal. You don't have to log every hour.

To be fair, the regulations state for the legality of the flight and part 1 is hours required for a licence or rating, ie; ATPL but also a new type rating will ask for hours on category, total time but also only use an approximate amount. Not 15763.7, I would put 16000 and again, no one asks to see your logbook except T.C for the ATPL sign off and you’re done.
One caveat, you will need an up to date logbook for many job interviews, so kids, keep your logbook current until you are at your forever job.
I have to admit though, Duke had me dig into the regs because I thought I was missing something, as it turns out, I wasn’t

Read above: section 2

You need to maintain a logbook for recency requirements. I guess you could only log your 5 take offs and landings in 6months.

[goingnowherefast]

I don't see where it says in that reg that one would need to know what their total time. Maintain what's needed for ratings/license applications. Also currency.

I haven't totalled up my logbook in years. All the entries are there. I can prove I'm current. No idea how many total hours are there. M-PIC night cross-country unicorn chasing time, no idea. I'm current and can prove it. My last type rating was completed years ago, and that experience is in there too.

Yes that's the point I was trying to make.

You can join as an FO and wait your turn like all the qualified pilots on property.

Just apply. Worst case they say “thank you for your time”

Then you try again in 6 months

It’s a legal requirement to keep track of your hours. Saying you don’t know basically means you’re a criminal.

Actually the requirements are to track currency, not total time. After 10k the only people who give a dig are the HR mavens

I stand corrected then.
