he_monkey Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 RLC used to be the one place that would consider 1000 hour pilots for the Gulf. Now that RLC seems to be losing contracts and laying off pilots what's happening down there? Will the companies picking up the extra work like ERA and PHI lower their hours and hire lower time guys? Or does it mean there's not much of a job market for low time guys in the Gulf anymore? Quote
CharyouTree Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 I know they were recently bringing back the layoffs from May (back in Mid-June. The lay-off didn't last long). But if they lay off, and those people are "high timers" looking for work, I suspect PHI and ERA won't need to lower anything. Minimums would probably go up, if they changed due to the one company's woes. But don't sweat, because less than a year ago, PHI was looking for 1,000 hour pilots, but they raised over the course of the year. I hear it's cyclical... Quote
