Yes CRJ time is good, need a lot of pic for direct entry.
737 NG Captain package is everything all together 6250x13 pay months....for 63 hrs of flying per month above that 64 dollars per hour.
with 80 hrs per month you could make around 7300 dollars per month with 20%taxes paid by you.
training contract $18.400, with 7-10 days off.
I hope this help, not a lot but good company

That sounds like not a lot of flying in a month.
20% is a reasonable tax rate. But are you paid in USD? I've heard you use USDs.
What's the price of a 2 bdrm villa out of curiosity?
A word to the young and restless Panamanian pilot.
Locals need to support their national carrier and understand their desire to achieve a command is understandable by the expat, but foolhardy without the proper preparation and experience is likely a disaster waiting to happen. Be patient. Get your experience alongside experienced Captains from wherever they may hail. You will have much to gain and help Copa in return. They will be a strong and viable carrier in the years ahead from which you can build a career and a future.
Young, inexperienced, and impatient individuals have accidents and accidents can spell the end for any rising star airline. Including Copa.
Be careful what you wish for.
A young bull standing atop a hill overlooking a herd of cows said to the old bull beside him, "Why don't we run down there and screw us a cow?"
To which the old bull replied, "Why don't we walk down and screw them all?"
You can also teach the expats in return.

Immigrant,
Thanks for the feedback. Have you heard any hiring numbers or number of upcoming interview slots in the next 1-2 months? Are ex-pats getting calls? What kind of applicant are they looking for?
Thanks again.

Have no idea about slots and dates..sorry, but I think you hardly need them.
2011 coming 10 -800's plus a lot of retirements....it will be just a conveyer.
And of course ex-pats the main stream on it

Hours
Pacrion, i just looked at their website and for expat they still require 1.000 TT flight time... So for me is a no go for the time being.. 
250 hrs for the locals to apply..
and of course, the spanish language is probably a must too, which i do have

So, anything new on hiring? I am checking their website once a while, let's see if they start soon.
Will be 'stalking' on them, as soon as I know more, I will let you guys know.
200+ in 2011, and lots of new plane, that sounds great! (At least to me
)

Ok folks I have figured out the reason for why so many people are having problems with the given email address for applications.
I went back to my Outlook and realised that with all the scans of licenses and logbooks etc. the actual email was around 20MB in size. Some email accounts cannpt receive emails over a certain size. I then compressed all of my attached documents so the whole thing was under 2MB and presto it sent and I received the automated response form Copa 5 minutes later.
For all that have had problems I suggest you use Microsoft Photo Editor and just compress all scanned images, then resend. It should work.................good luck to all!
