What's wrong with going on a caravan at 1300 hours? if you've been sloggin' around all winter in a 206, no reason you can't make the progression.

Of course you don't "need" an MBA to work the ramp. You don't really need Grade 1 to work the ramp.

But by setting the qualifications slightly higher than the average they're saving themselves the hassle of being deluded with a 1000 resumes.

500 resumes would be easier to manage from the poor secretaries point of view.

You could also make the argument that college grads are easier to train, but that's a whole other 999 threads that's been argued to death...

Their rationale was, that more often than not, it was easier to train a 200hr wonder with a diploma to sit right seat in a turbine right away and to fly PIC without alot of supervision on a light single.

You won't sit on the ramp/office for long before a gaggle of others above you go to Borek and open up spots. Although that problem has been mitigated by a bond of sorts.

The other thing was that they aren't just a quick drive to get to, its a bit of an undertaking to get there,and all of your crap with you.

Man that place is a hole...get in, get your time FAST and get the hell out....

Yeah, I was wondering about that job post. I thought requirements (flight time/ college etc) were being lowered? Apparently not.

It also looks like they require a University degree to work the ramp? Would they take someone in the process of finishing a degree? hmm

Yes I wrote it, because those were the words straight from the North Wright chief pilots mouth.

A retelling of the facts per se.

You are a perfect example of why I prefer single pilot ops.

You are the kinda guy that isn't going to move beyond single pilot ops - learn to take a joke and thicken up that skin-o-yours...

settle the @#$! down and quit wearing out the "quote" button.

You need a University degree because in the morning you throw bags on the ramp and in the afternoon you develop fiscal policy and audit the trial balance.
