yep

Mate of mine went for this two days ago. Looks like they said no go, he has <1000 hrs.

Good company though. High standards, which is fine. But with such high requirements you could wait a long time for a pilot. Sometimes you just have to give a guy a go. What can happen if you hold out too long, when you get really desperate you can end up grabbing the first dude that walks in the door. And he may end up being a dud.

Eg. They have been looking for a 404/406 guy for ages, so I am told. Since New year in fact. Another mate of mine had a crack. With over 2000 hrs and Metro time and even 402. He didnt even get a second look!

Dont get me wrong though. Top company, shmick aircraft. Given the chance I would take it for sure.

Cheers

Helldog,
You're right in many points, there are not a lot of guys at 1000 TT and above who are going to take a C206 seat for a low salary. And I think I was in the office when your mate called and I heard the boss telling him he wanted 1000 mini. Although in the last 2 years, he employed 2 pilots with 250 and 350 TT. I do think that the position has been given to someone already, and that was the excuse.
I agree that the company had been looking for a 4040 and 406 pilot for quite a while. But the boss is very tough, and has his own principles and ideas on what he wants from a pilot. We even saw a guy with 1700 hours on 406 not making the cut (and getting stressed, leaving after 10 days). So, you're right, but you know him, he has a mind of his own, and that's the way he's been running the house and he makes good money.

I am the leaving 206 pilot, so will be in the bad books there for a while. Had a great time flying though, great experience and the guy is so knowledgeable, but I have mostly learn a lot from some of the other pilots, especially the Van drivers.

Salaams,
