What is the pilot schedule for skylink in YHM lately

Lately it's averaged about 4 days/week, but could go as high as 5 if you include stnby. Weekends are usually free and clear with the exception of 1, occasionally 2 stnby weekends/ month.

Do you know what first year f/o pay is? Do they require any kind of bond...kinda hard to get a hold of them.

I think f/o pay is somewhere between 35 and 37k. Bonds are over two years. not sure the amount though.

Do you know if they are hiring anybody right now for the right seat at YHM and would they take a 500 hour guy that doesn't mind being at skylink for a long time as I live near the place and don't want to go far or desire to fly something really big as I hear the 1900 is a nice bird to fly.

Is it true that your day begins at 5 a.m. and ends at 9 p.m.?

any other suggetions would be nice

Skylink does feeder work for the main couriers. You wait for the sort, deliver it, and wait for the return parcels at night to make the sort. Yes you start early A.M. and arrive around 9PM or after. There's usually some type of sleeping accommodations in between.
