Fellas, wondering if anyone with some intel on these firms could help me out. Through blind luck and some connections, I just may have a shot at going to one of these companies. Wishful thinking, I know, but maybe.
I really don't know a whole lot about either of them. Just know they are 2 dominent fractional companies. I have 2 connections who think they may be able to help me pursue something at each firm.
First, realistically, what would a first year and second year pilot be looking at making at either firm?? I am currently furloughed from UAL and have a non-aviation type job and am wondering if the pay is decent to start.
Second, I am from Northeast Ohio (Akron area) and wish to stay put where I'm at. I know Flexjet operates out of Cleveland, but which airport? Also, EJA has a big base in Columbus. This is probably an hour and a half drive for me to get there. Just wondering if this would work out or would I need to move closer.
If I wanted Cleveland(Flexjet) or Columbus(EJA), could you get it right out of class??
Third, do these companies make you sign resignation letters with your current carrier?? Any training contracts?? Also, what is the timeline from submitting an application to interview to class??
Thanks for any info.
