I would have loved working for Cape Air. Now all I do is flying small birds wishing I we're. Is there anyway I could get copies of the manuals so I can use them when I fly my Sims on CAs routes
Hawksfan had a good suggestion, I also suggest you start looking into a flight club soon. Go up for an introductory lesson. I would think most instructors in the new england area would have a good idea of what cape air wants. You should also look for a job at an airport, I'm not sure if you can at 16 but it doesn't hurt to try.
There's no substitute for quality training .... AND experience. Most of these guys are ultra low time when they start out. Given those parameters, Cape Air has a remarkable safety record
These people seem like they want to be pilots, not the guys who go "Whooo, look at me!". They seem to work hard and enjoy what they are doing. Cape Air had some trouble with engines but they fixed it before it became an issue. It seems they stay on top of things (pilots and company). Very good safety record as you said.
green pilots do fly the 402, but they aren't green for very long. Like raphy1123 said, part 135 single pilot ops will make a man out of you and is definitely better experience than 2 pilot part 121...
We still need the money, though. Flight training is expensive, and we have homes and families to pay for. If we could work for less, most wouldn't have any issue
For what it's worth, Cape Air pay is better than what you'll find at a regional, I can personally attest to that. If you're take home pay is less than a manager at McDonalds, you have only yourself to blame. There are plenty of avenues to that "dream job" and you don't have to go to a regional to make it happen.
Lol. If you did this you’re to blame. Sure it sucks being with small companies that push and pressure it’s all over northern Canada but a good pilot knows when to say no, that’s it.
Are you at all familiar with the rules governing instrument approaches? I shouldn't have to explain to you how that's possible. That's simply the benefit of bright approach lights. Just sayin'
Fact of the matter is that it is still a JOB and you need to be paid a wage that you can live on when you have close to 100 lives in your hands and you work the amount of time you do on a trip. Until you become an airline pilot and see for yourself, the love of being in the air goes away very quick when your take home pay is less than the manager at McDonalds. The difference is the McDonalds guy doesn't have student loans to pay. So he actually makes more.
hi this is syed from india currently holding Indian CPL as of now im looking for Cessna 402c rating. I will like to know what will be the total cost in USD kindly reply. thanks.
One pilot going threw engine out pages trying to control the plane are you nuts. That part should be in every pilots head and not in a book.. While turning pages you hit the ground game over..
The reason they haven't is because they operate in a safe manner and have pilots with some of the best instrument flying skills out there. Now stop being a troll and find something else to do.
Hmmmm, let me guess you're a disgruntled Nantucket Shuttle pilot? Cape Air never "blows off safety." You're confusing "10 passenger" Nantucket Shuttle with Cape Air...
Because of progression. You weren't suppose to stay at the bottom making crap wages forever, too many wanted to just get the time and head to the majors but the demographics changed. Are you even a pilot?

yep this is great, insight into pilot training
Well landing in Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket island can be beautiful Views as the pilot can see while taking off and landing.

I really hope to work for Cape Air one day! I'm in route! See you soon Cape Air!
You here yet
you working there yet?
And ?
yup, i flew single pilot 135 on demand for 10 years, it aged me twice that.
it's called good IFR flying skills. If they have the 1800 RVR, then it's a piece of cake.

I'll be getting my Commercial, Instrument, and Multi this year, and I definitely want to work for Cape Air
10 years ago, you commented. Did you get the Job ?
@@nkyabosi4827 Nope. Decided jets are cooler. And faster
@@Tony_Airlines which Jet are you flying, and company

Is the flow booklet available for purchase ( for use as a sim pilot)?
Most pilots dont do it for the money. They do it for the love and passion of being in the air
We still need the money, though. Flight training is expensive, and we have homes and families to pay for. If we could work for less, most wouldn't have any issue
Very interesting to see this!
no, i dont work for either place. just been in ack a lot and suprised how they land some mornings.

I like the outtakes! ;)
Of course, but a lot of pilots, especially the young ones, think the regionals is your only ticket to the majors.
Well I'm going to begin my flight career, I'm going to start going for my PPL this summer, hopefully one day I can work for cape air.
Where are you at now ?
is the class where they teach how to blow off safety and land at nantucket with 1/8 mile vis?
Lol. If you did this you’re to blame. Sure it sucks being with small companies that push and pressure it’s all over northern Canada but a good pilot knows when to say no, that’s it.
I am going in to the Air National Guard as a C-17 Loadmaster, hopefully go back to school for my B.S and go pilot.
Well there's something we can agree on.

Very Interesting.
Jim Austin I agree

Careful, the pay is dirt cheap. I make more pumping gas on the ramp..And the weather doesn't change my pay..
amazing they havent balled one up in there yet.
how many hours do I need to work for a company like this , thanks
SamirTH-cam I think about 200 or 300
@raphy1123 um yeah...ive done it for only about 4000 hours...
yeah, ive been out there ready to take off and its 1000rvr and yet in they come...
just sayin'

oh im on the virtual airline
The reason they haven't is because they operate in a safe manner and have pilots with some of the best instrument flying skills out there. Now stop being a troll and find something else to do.
You don't know most pilots. Most have kids to feed and a mortgage to pay, guess what, love and passion don't pay for either of those.
Gotta make that Green so they can pay the first officer 9$ an hour xD
The "First Officer" at Cape Air is really just a trainee. Still not worth it
PH-BQL
yeah you could always go in 10 years in the military and pray you dont get assigned the predator lol

Well if they want money, then why are they pilots when they know they won't make much? As I said, pilots do it for the love of being in the air.
Dude needs to iron his shirt.
Lol probs can't afford an iron on that salary bud
John Donald True. Probably should just take it out of the dryer sooner.
Tom Davison lol
lol...."it brings green pilots up to speed on the 402"......green pilots FLY 402's.....thats why they work at cape air.
