1.What type of rotations do you do
Standard 7on/7off. As others have said, 14/14 is possible.
2.Do new guys start on the 76 as a co-joe
No, that ain't gonna happen any more.
3Where would you likely be sent at first
Somewhere where the mosquitos are large & vicious. That pretty well covers all the PHI bases.
Yes. US$44,872/yr to start, plus a huge $9/day per diem, plus medical insurance, 401(k) matching, vacation, sick leave, etc. Management keeps trying to ignore the contract & take benefits back, since US labor laws have no teeth at all, but so far we're staying the same.
Depends on what you mean by good. Probably better than most, but management still depends on intimidation.
6.Future outlook for pilot intakes
Probably good in the long run. We just had another reduction, through a voluntary retirement program. Apparently they got enough pilots to go for it, but there was a layoff of admin personnel. Pilots are retiring at a pretty good rate, either through age, medical problems, or checkride failures. The checkride department is used to weed out 'undesirables'.
Why would someone in Oz worry about the climate in upstate NY???
