I'm about a month away from wrapping up my Multi and group 1 IFR and just had Air Tindi stop by the school last night for a presentation. Basically gave us the run down of what it's like living and flying in Yellowknife and north. They mentioned that they have a "Part-Time First Officer" program which seems to be a development of the old "Pilot in waiting" programs every northern operator has had and perhaps still has. They mentioned you'd likely be initially trained in ground work then eventually sent south for sim on either the Twin Otter or King Air to come back and fly on a 4-days on ground, 4-days off, 4-days flying, 4-days off cycle.

My question for folks on here is what is it like flying for Tindi? and what would a person be looking at in terms of living in the Knife? What exactly is it like travelling on interline?

Aside from my in-progress Multi-IFR, I have ~420 TT, 305 PIC as of the day I'm writing this. Will probably finish training closer to 440-445TT. Will have IATRA done fairly soon too if that is required, though it didn't sound like it till you get on the Dash's.

Thanks in advance.
