Hi, I am not sure I have ever seen how many days in a row one can consistently have off using the various schedules(probably 14/14). It would be helpful in some decision making. We try to make the schedule as flexible as possible and the number of consecutive days off can be as little as 3, with no...

Can anyone clarify if this is just a cut and paste error or are they looking for CJ and Legacy crews? Cheers, Hi Freeport, Thanks for bringing this ...

Never really thought about the scenario in detail before but of course, it seems like the logical thing to do...… "C-FASF, an Embraer 545 operated by AirSprint Inc. as flight ASP827, was on approach to Toronto/LBPIA (CYYZ), ON when a flight crew member was ill and unable to continue their duties. T...

Hi guys, Going through the handbook (which is great to see publicly), i was looking towards the benefit side of things. If I understand correct, on year 6, AS takes care of 100% of the cost of benefits for pilots, is that correct? Up to that point, guys pay a percentage? Does that percentage decrea...

Hello ehv8oar, The current list of approved base airports is CYYJ, CYVR, CYLW, CYYC, CYEG, CYWG, CYYZ, CYOW, CYUL, CYQB, and CYFC. The airports are selected by looking at how many clients are based in the cities, how often we fly to those particular locations, and the feasibility of positioning pilo...

Just wondering if anything has changed at AirSprint in the past 10 months or so to make commuting out of Halifax, for a Montreal or Toronto base, a more viable option? Hi ehv8oar, I did answer your question in the other topic, but for the benefit of those that may not be following the other post, h...

Hi Matt, Just wondering if it would be possible (feasible) to work at AirSprint at yyz or yul and commute from Halifax? Hi ehv8oar, Currently our only policy is that you are able to report to your home base airport within 90 minutes of receiving a phone call do so when you are on reserve. And while...

Anyone know the typical upgrade time for a FO to get Captaincy??? Hi 780Pilot, For the Citation fleet I am forecasting approximately 2 years, it could be a little bit more or less depending on where you are based. This is what we are currently seeing and is subject to change as a result of several ...

Hi Guys, I noticed that the requirements for an FO are pretty high, does anyone know if Air Sprint has been hiring below their minimums posted? The company sounds very transparent with a decent work life balance, it's definitely spiked my interest in applying. Thanks Hi Pilot96140, Thank you for yo...

As far as traditional corporate flight departments go there are none in YYZ that I know of that offer rotational work. Fractional or charter outfits may be different. AirSprint has been advertising a lot this last year and they seem to offer two weeks on two weeks off or something like that. At air...

The below page is usually updated in a timely manner for those asking about larger aircraft salaries at NJ. https://www.airlinepilotcentral.com/airlines/fractional/netjets The one thing to note with NJ is that it usually takes a very long time to make Captain. If the website is correct, the current...

Hi, just wondering if you will still be hiring in the next few months? I have 3500 hours with 1000h PIC on 705 aircraft. Thank you! Good Morning Kardow, We do forecast additional hiring in the coming months so if you are interested in joining AirSprint I encourage you to submit a resume to careers@...

Hi Alcoholism, As a Fractional operator, we are not technically a corporate flight department, and so our operations differ in a number of ways. With over 4 pilots per aircraft our pilots have the benefit of bidding for their schedules through our Preferential Bidding System, as well as taking vaca...

If you like your work day to change all the time, change FP in mid air, set up customs in mid air, and additional unpredictability beyond a normal corporate FD, then this is the place for you. Hectic and busy will be the words to describe this place. Hi Alcoholism, As a Fractional operator, we are ...

Good Morning Pelmet, Our schedule ratios, 14/14, 16/12, and 18/10, indicate the number of reserve days and days off per bid period, which is 28 days. So, the 14/14 schedule means you would get 14 days of reserve and 14 days off, the 16/12 is 16 reserve days and 12 days off, and the 18/10 is 18 days...

Good Day Aya, With our new schedule choices our reserve rules have changed slightly, for the 14/14 and 16/12 schedule the minimum consecutive reserve days is 7, with the normal maximum 8. There are options to increase your consecutive reserve days beyond that, up to as many as 13 days, but that is o...

I see a new job ad up for Captains and F/O's with the Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal bases. Nothing currently mentions the secondary base structure that was supposed to be coming into place...? Is this something that is still in the works or was it an idea that was axed? I would be very interested in...

Do you operate to Europe with the 450 or foresee possible expansion with even larger aircraft over the coming decade with reach into Europe/Asia? We do operate to Europe with the Legacy 450. Currently we have seen operations to Scotland, France, and Portugal. Asia has not been discussed as an opera...

With the 14/14 schedule, is it possible to group those into 14 days in a row, then 14 off in a row? And do you get vacation on top of this? Also, that requirements do you have for an off the street Captain? Now that would make the job interesting to me. Air Sprint might just find that they could fi...

Really nice! What percentage are night flights (let's say between midnight and 6 am)? Is the bond linked to the base: for example if the company closes the secondary base after a year, are you still bonded for 2 years in total? Great initiative though! Hello, Last we did an analysis on our night fl...
