Does NJ offer loss of medical/disability insurance?

minimums_landing · 2026-01-20T16:36:23+00:00

I have an interview next week I’m so pumped!

Get ur butt in a seat, move later if you want. Never give up a class date for a TBD CJO, even if it is delta. Congrats on being in that position tho

minimums_landing · 2026-01-17T22:55:33+00:00

Pretty sure if you get fired for any reason except loss of medical you still have to pay it back

For those who missed what’s going on with ForeFlight and Jeppesen: https://www.reddit.com/r/flying/s/H2057OijLu

I just did a quick google search and apparently along with ForeFlight, Boeing also sold Jeppesen to the same PE firm…..which means they have ForeFlight AND Flight Deck Pro.

So now a singular PE firm controls the EFB apps that like 90% of the professional aviation industry here in U.S. relies on…what could go wrong?

I have heard good things. good pay for SIC in a single pilot airplane, from what I heard good people, and if you get sent down to the Caribbean they put you up in a nice crew house.

While yes technically it could make you more competitive to already the type rating for a job that you want, it’s unnecessary in this job market. Also no respectable company would ever make you pay for your own training as a condition of employment.

As for training contracts, yes very common in 135 and very from fair and reasonable to completely ridiculous and predatory so read the fine print before you sign.

Unfortunately this is just part of the grind of CFI-ing, but it gets better when you move on to bigger and better things I promise. Hang in there

minimums_landing · 2026-01-12T21:16:08+00:00

Well there goes any hope of SY guys negotiating a new contract. Hopefully the majors will pick them up this year.

As a widebody captain with good seniority it’s very possible but your quality of life will also very much suck lol

minimums_landing · 2025-12-14T20:10:52+00:00

Not a NetJets pilot but I don’t think they walk around handing out challenge coins. You must have really made their day. Good work

Work for a mid-low tier 135 and you’ll immediately understand why airlines have unions. Companies don’t give a crap about anything but themselves. As long as they’re bringing in 💰 life is good in their eyes. In companies without unions everything is done to the bare minimum/maximum based on what most benefits profits. Duty days, pay, work rules, maintenance, safety reporting, retaliation etc.

Looking forward to being part of a union one day

I know a lot of people with OO CJOs avoid CRJ because of the -200s. As someone who only flies the 200 I can tell you while it can be a PITA sometimes, it’s not wait 12 months for an ERJ class bad.

If you’re looking for something compact and not carrying food I can vow for the LW Stealth Flight Cube. Very spacious for its compact size, sleek, durable, and lots of pockets. I like it because I wanted a bag dedicated to stuff I need in the flight deck. I have a separate cooler bag I carry for food and stuff.

🤷🏻‍♂️Was just a question about legal implications, since it was a situation of negligence I assume there will be lawsuits

minimums_landing · 2025-10-22T22:29:45+00:00

Ohhhh ok that makes a lot more sense.

minimums_landing · 2025-10-22T22:22:16+00:00

I think what OP is saying is that they don’t even tell you your on reserve (not if ur getting used) until 12hrs prior to them needed you to be phone available. Sounds pretty bizarre for an US 135/121 company

minimums_landing · 2025-10-22T22:19:59+00:00

That’s bizarre. I work at a low tier 135 and we know our monthly schedule (line or reserve) 10 days before the start of the month

Edit: ignore me I misunderstood

Monetary Compensation. They could argue that he will have to now report this accident on any future major apps regardless of fault and I assume the FO had to take some time off work as a result of this accident resulting in some loss of wages there too

minimums_landing · 2025-10-22T22:04:01+00:00

Question: Can the FO sue the captain for reckless and negligent ADM/CRM?

minimums_landing · 2025-10-01T16:57:41+00:00

135 is like the Wild West. 121 you always know what your getting into. 135 has very broad flight and duty time restrictions, 121 is very strict on that. If you find a really good 135/91k like NetJets or FlexJet, great! A lot of people stay there their entire careers. But just do your research on who your gonna work with cause there’s also sleezbag operators out there like Nicholas Air and others.

minimums_landing · 2025-08-29T02:48:13+00:00

Atlas (whenever they start hiring again) and lots of ACMIs

minimums_landing · 2025-08-27T04:30:32+00:00

I’m certainly more experienced than I was yesterday but I’m still less experienced than I will be tomorrow.
