Skynorth air

Post by cfall »

Can anyone shed light on the Skynorth ads. A few months ago they posted they wanted 500 multi pic for copilots. Ad is now removed and they now post they want “500-1000 hours total time( must be in this range)”.

500 hours TT is probably a government requirement for medevac pilots in Manitoba; the fact that SNA has dropped their requirements is just a reflection of the current hiring environment. They probably were not getting any resumes at 500MPIC...

Correct. 500tt for fo’s and i think 1500 and 500 pic is bare minimum for captains. Used to be 500 multipic was required but that was dropped maybe 2 years ago to just 500 pic fueling speculation that the govt was considering a switch from A multi turbine requirment on the contract to pc12’s.

30k, and they probably won't pay it in full while training, how miserable they are.

You will literally make more at macdonalds. And you won't be stuck for 18 months without being in debt 30k.

I get the 500 for the bottom but what about the max of 1000?

Probably cause anything higher is a “flight risk” to the airlines in under a year

Does anyone have an update on SkyNorth and what a realistic salary to expect for them is? Their recent job posting says some Captains earned over $200k but I'm sure those are the senior captains and in rare circumstances. As far as what I've heard they increase salary every year you're at the company and you get paid per NM flown over a certain amount. They make the job ad sound very appealing but what's the reality of the situation?
