Letter From the Editor
Editor in Chief Craig Pieper Dear Readers, As the summer rapidly approaches, I sit in my home office constructing this letter as an impending line of thunderstorms barrels down on Eastern Pennsylvania, and I am reminded of the dangers of flying near and around thunderstorms. I once had a Captain query me, “Which do you prefer, flying in snow and ice during the winter or in the summer with these ‘blasted’ thunderstorms that just seem to put a halt to everything?” We were sitting in a hardstand awaiting our taxi time, so I had some time to think about his question. Each weather event has their own unique dangers and both have taken lives. Eventually, the weather came and went and we were able to make it safely to our destination, but I was never able to personally come up with a definitive answer to his question. Email me your thoughts on which weather event you feel possess more danger. I would like to remind my fellow aviators, Fly Safe tonight, and the rest of the summer! Thank you! Craig D. Pieper Editor in Chief

alon Air was founded by an individual who combined a passion for private aviation with a vision for a singular business travel solution. A successful real estate developer and attorney, father of five, multi-engine, instrument rated, ATP pilot and certified flight instructor, Talon Air Founder and CEO Adam Katz, Esq. recognized that the private jet market lacked what he demanded as a discerning and knowledgeable traveler: consistency and flexibility. Mr. Katz realized that individuals and businesses did not want the five-year commitment or owner-liability associated with fractional private aircraft ownership. He disagreed with the concept of 1) Purchasing a plane that the owner would rarely, if ever, use and 2) Being forced to fly different tail numbers with different pilots on every trip. Lastly, he recognized that jet-cards were too expensive and brokers lacked operational control. In 2001, Mr. Katz purchased a fleet of late-model aircraft from Raytheon Aircraft Corporation (now Hawker Beechcraft Corporation), hired experienced and well-trained pilots, built a 45,000 sq ft state-of-the-art hangar facility and opened the doors to Talon Air. Since opening its doors in August 2001, Talon Air has delivered an unparalleled level of consistency and customer service in the luxury private jet industry. Today, Talon Air has emerged as New York’s fastest growing full service on-demand
charter operator, boutique management company, Part 145 Service Center and FBO service provider. Headquartered at Republic Airport (FRG) in Farmingdale, NY Talon’s fleet of 27 aircraft operate from its state of the art 100,000 sq-ft hangar and office complex with satellite bases located in Bedford, MA (BED) and Stuart, FL (SUA).

You may think integrating good eating habits into a hectic travel schedule is impossible. The good news is that it is not. You can eat well on the run. This twopart series offers tips to help you. Look for restaurants/fast food establishments that allow you to: substitute standard items with vegetables/fruits substitutions (e.g. exchange fries for a baked potato or side salad) opt for baked, broiled, grilled, or roasted protein options when possible, prepare small travel packs of nutrient-dense snacks (e.g. jerky, dried fruits, nuts, or seeds). Fill half your plate with veggies and fruits. Vegetables and fruits are full of nutrients and help to promote good health. TIP: Make colorful choices – red, orange, dark green, yellow, etc. Eat a moderate amount of lean protein. Choose lean cuts of proteins. TIP: Make seafood your protein of choice twice a week. Consume more whole grains. Make whole grains more than 50% of the types of grains you consume. TIP: Look for “100% whole grain” or “100% whole wheat” on food labels. Do not skim on the dairy. Pair a meal with a cup of fat-free/ low-fat milk or low-fat yogurt. TIP: Soymilk or soy beverages are an excellent alternative if you are lactose intolerant. Skip the excess fat. Heavy gravies or sauces add fat and calories to otherwise healthy food choices. TIP: Try alternatives toppings such as fresh lemon juice or low-fat parmesan cheese.

Contract Talks Written by: Scott Stahl
Maximizing Personal Time The Benefit of Paid Time Off
I
n an industry where a pilot may spend up to 200-250 days on the road away from home, time off becomes the single most important aspect of quality of life for virtually every pilot in the industry as this would be the time they can pursue hobbies, time with family, home chores, and in many cases day to day personal business. With relation to airlines, paid time off falls into several categories. The first of these categories is scheduled days off. Since the industry is predicated on minimum monthly guarantee, the greater the number of scheduled days the pilot has off without reducing guarantee, the higher the quality of life for the pilot. As an example, if a pilot at Airline A has a minimum monthly guarantee of 75 hours, and a pay rate of $30 per hour with a minimum of 12 days a month off, and a pilot at Airline B has the same guarantee, the same pay, but only 10 guaranteed days off, then the pilot at Airline A will have 20% more time off than the pilot at Airline B while still being guaranteed the same money. Of course, this is independent of the number of hours worked each month and might also apply to line holders or pilots who fly more hours per month. Airlines will often have other stipulations negotiated into their contract which may improve or degrade quality of life even when all other factors are equal. For instance, Airline A and Airline B might both have a minimum of 12 days a month guaranteed in their contract, but Airline A might have a provision that requires at least 4 days off together, while Airline B may have no such provision. This can be a significant factor that might be in favor of Airline A because days off that are grouped together are usually more relaxing and productive for a pilot. This can be especially true for commuters who may spend a significant portion of their days off traveling to their base of employment. Another benefit to larger blocks of days off is that it will typically force trips to be more productive since the airline will have to schedule the same number of hours in the days available. This can have the side effect of reducing sit times, increasing block times, or other things that may improve productivity. Some airlines may also have factors that negatively affect the quality of a schedule. For instance, Airline C may have a provision in their contract where they are able to reduce the minimum number of days off allotted in the contract under certain conditions. This can have a majorly adverse effect on the pilot, as it can increase their time away from home, reduce productivity and greatly impact their personal activities.

The second important aspect of paid time off is vacation accrual times. This is obviously above and beyond scheduled days off, and typically is the same as what an employee would get at any job with a normal schedule. In most cases, the pilot will accrue vacation hours per month or per pay period as they would at any job. Obviously, the more hours a pilot gains per time period, the higher their quality of life will be since that time off effectively converts into time off. As an example, Airline A’s contract may provide that any pilot with a tenure of 1-5 years accrues 5 hours per month, any pilot with 5-10 years of tenure accrues 7 hours of vacation per month and any pilot with a tenure of 15+ years accrues 10 hours per month. On the other hand, Airline B may only award 3 hours of vacation per month for anything less than 5 years and 5 hours per month above 5 years. Obviously, this is going to have a very large and measurable impact on quality of life since vacation time can be converted directly into income. In this case, the first year pilot at Airline A will be earning 60 hours of vacation per year, while the first year pilot at Airline B will earn 36 hours, or 40% less vacation time. Since this is aviation, of course it is more complex than that. The other important factor that is going to affect vacation is how that time is “spent” when the pilot uses it to get time off. The reason this difference exists is because time is not

Contract Talks cont... typically credited on a 1 hour for 1-hour basis as it would be with a normal 40-hour work week. Since an airline pilot’s “salary” is based on a minimum monthly guarantee, the airlines will typically have a conversion rate for vacation time. For instance, if Airline A considers 3.75 hours to be the value of a work day (as negotiated in the contract), then the 60 hours of vacation earned in the example above would convert to nearly a full month of vacation time. If Airline B has the same conversion factor as Airline A, the pilot at Airline B will see just under 10 days of vacation time in that first year. It goes without saying that the difference between 16 days off and 9.5 days off is pretty significant. In a case where Airline B also charges 5 hours of vacation time for one day versus the 3.75 hours, the difference is even more significant. This is why it is paramount that the pilot understands how they are being “charged” for their vacation time as provided in their contract. Most airlines will have a minimum threshold that a pilot must meet (minimum monthly credit) in order to keep their guarantee. So if Airline A requires 50 hours of minimum credit to pay the guarantee of 75 hours (this allows for variance in schedules and also allows some flexibility in pilots adjusting their trips), the pilot may be able to get a full month off with his vacation bank. If Airline B has a minimum credit of 60 hours, then a pilot at that airline will have to use an extra 10 hours in order to get minimum guarantee and still get the entire month off. Of course, they don’t have to get the whole month off, but the concept of trading vacation hours for days off at a specific rate is pretty standard.
Some airlines may also allow additional flexibility with vacation time such as being able to take vacation one day at a time, versus having to take it in blocks. That is something the pilot will have to understand about their particular contract. The final form of paid time off that typically exists under normal life circumstances is bereavement time. Bereavement time would be in addition to the disability circumstances that were previously discussed. Bereavement time is allowed for those situations in life when events happen that would require the pilot to need time off in order to be with a loved one, attend a funeral, etc. Policies on this will vary by airline, but most airlines will have some accommodation for this reality of life. Airline A may have identical provisions for bereavement time as Airline B, but may also include a clause or stipulation that additional time may be awarded at the discretion of a chief pilot, versus Airline B who may strictly only allow time under the circumstances outlined in the contract. In certain situations, this might make a difference in the ability of a pilot to get paid time off for the purpose of grieving or sorting personal affairs. This type of time off could really be viewed as a safety function as well as a quality of life function as this can be a major stressor in a pilot’s life during an already very stressful time. In all cases, paid time off or PTO, as it is commonly referred to, is a major factor in the quality of life of a pilot and should be carefully understood and considered when choosing the best place to work as it can have a tangible and significant effect on a pilot’s happiness.

F
rontier Airlines is committed to delivering “Low Fares Done Right”. More than just a tagline or marketing campaign, this is Frontier’s driving philosophy! While that has and will remain constant, many things are evolving as Frontier continues its transformation into North America’s premier air carrier. Operational improvements, fleet growth and network expansion just scratch the surface. Frontier has placed significant emphasis on operational improvements in order to provide a better product for its customers. Affordable, reliable and friendly service starts with performance; completing the mission with flights that leave on time and arrive on time. Continuing to efficiently utilize and deploy their fleet, repeating this type of performance year after year, day after day, flight after flight showcases how serious Frontier is about serving its customers safely and reliably. Yearto-date statistics from masFlight, an analytics platform, for 2016 show that Frontier ranks in the top third of all U.S. Airlines with regard to:
Frontier currently has 60 aircraft on property, and that number will continue to dramatically increase. Having recently placed its largest aircraft order ever (119 Airbus A320 series aircraft), Frontier began receiving new aircraft late last year with the delivery of their first Airbus A321. This autumn Frontier will accept delivery of its first (of more than 80) Airbus A320 NEOs. Over the next 5 years Frontier plans to more than double the size of their fleet. Frontier’s fleet isn’t just growing; it is being maintained with pride! 2015 was the third consecutive year that the Frontier Maintenance team received the FAA Diamond Award of Excellence. This is the highest award presented for participation in the FAA Aviation Maintenance Technician Awards Program and requires 100 percent of eligible employees to receive an individual award for training in the following: •
Human Factors
•
Safety
•
Completion Factor
•
Aircraft Systems
•
D0 (departing within 0 minutes of scheduled departure time)
•
FAA Core Competencies
•
A14 (arriving within 0 minutes of scheduled arrival time)
•
B0 (flights arriving within 0 minutes of scheduled block time)
Frontier was only one of two U.S. airlines to receive the award in 2015.
That type of operational performance allows Frontier to proudly deliver Customer Service Done Right. Not just another tagline or gimmick, Customer Service Done Right is the very name of Frontier’s initiative to focus on its customers. The initiative is working. DOT reporting statistics, through April, show a marked change in customer satisfaction. Placing focus on its website and providing its customers with information and flexibility when purchasing a ticket has increased the transparency of their a la carte business model. This has allowed Frontier passengers to make decisions based on their individual needs when deciding to book a flight.

Network expansion has been consistent at Frontier. 2016 alone has seen more than 50 new routes announced. Now serving more than 60 destinations in the United States, Mexico and the Dominican Republic, today’s route map is more robust than ever. Frontier’s strategic network planning has contributed greatly to their operational success. “Travelers between big cities have enjoyed low fares while many markets have remained overpriced and underserved,” said Frontier Airlines President and CEO Barry Biffle. “Frontier’s low fares in these new markets will benefit millions of new fliers who are forced to drive because they haven’t found affordable air travel options – or they simply stay at home. We see hundreds of additional opportunities like these throughout the country...” Frontier submitted a filing with the US Department of Transportation petitioning to provide service to nine separate destinations within Cuba. At the time of this writing, Frontier was still awaiting official response from the DOT. To aide in their focus on operational performance and support their growing fleet, employee work force and network expansion, Frontier opened a new System Operational Control (SOC) center in June, 2015. This new SOC is larger and equipped with state of the art tools that allow Team Frontier members to keep their airline running smoothly throughout the day. Work groups critical to Frontier’s daily operation who work within the SOC include: •
Dispatch
•
Maintenance Control
•
AOG/Parts provision & purchasing
•
Centralized Load Planning
•
Crew Scheduling

Many of the operational improvements made at Frontier over the last 12 months directly affected Frontier pilots. Perhaps the most notable change from a pilot’s perspective was the addition of their Orlando, FL crew domicile. Opened in September 2015, Frontier’s MCO domicile currently has 200 pilots (100 CAs/100 FOs) and while it is currently the most junior CA base, many CAs from Frontier’s Chicago and Denver domiciles have voluntarily relocated to sunny Florida. Although Frontier continues to evolve, they are still very nimble and able to quickly adapt to changing market conditions. This ability and advantage was probably best highlighted by their ability to shift the focus of their flying organic to Chicago from Midway airport to O’Hare airport. The approximately 200 pilots who are based in Chicago now originate and terminate all scheduled flying at ORD. Frontier’s home and original crew domicile, Denver, still remains its largest with just over 600 pilots. Frontier is able to regularly conduct voluntary staffing adjustments and nearly all of their new hire First Officers are able to “hold” the domicile of their choosing within the first 3 months of employment. October 2015 was a very exciting month for Team Frontier as they inducted their first Airbus A321 into their fleet. Aircraft 701 has Otto the Owl adorned on its tail and is configured to happily transport 230 passengers at a time. Frontier’s seat mapping and seat density are definitely integral to their success and a key element of their Low Fares Done Right philosophy. Continuing their commitment to this plan, Frontier will begin receiving the first of their confirmed order of 80 Airbus A320NEOs featuring the space-flex galley and 186 seats in early September of this year. With a seemingly constant stream of new aircraft entering its fleet, Frontier’s crews must be getting pretty used to that

new airplane smell… and they will be enjoying that for some time. Frontier’s fleet size will double over the next five years. New aircraft and new markets have ushered in a hiring boom at Frontier that is not expected to slow down anytime in the near future. Since the summer of 2013 Frontier has nearly doubled the size of its pilot ranks; their forecast fleet size will see that list double again by 2021 meaning quick upgrade times. Frontier’s current Captain upgrade time is approximately 2 years. As Aero Crew News went to press, Frontier announced pilot hiring partnerships with Great Lakes Airlines and Silver Airways designed to remove many of the career uncertainties that pilots face as they begin their airline careers. The partnerships guarantee pilots entering the Career Pilot Program a first officer position with Frontier upon completion of defined experience requirements. These agreements are unique in that they do guarantee that the pilot will transition to Frontier as a first officer as soon as they have completed the experience requirements defined in each of their partner agreements. These programs are an excellent opportunity not only for those beginning their airline careers but for those who are in the midst of acquiring valuable experience. Opportunities are present in the agreements for New Hires, Current Pilots and in at least one agreement, “Street” Captains.
As Frontier continues its transformation, one thing has remained the same – Their people and culture. As unique as each of the animals that adorn the tails of the Airbus fleet, Frontier recognizes the greatness of each of its employees and remains as committed as ever to maintaining what has made them “A whole different animal”. Frontier meets many of their pilots at Aero Crew events. Be sure to meet with them at our next event. Should you be called for an interview, the following gouge should be a good place to start studying.
“With forecasted retirements, it’s no secret that the demand for highly qualified pilots will grow over the next several years,” said JP Thibodeau, Frontier’s chief pilot. “This new partnership helps address our future pilot staffing needs while providing pilots entering the workforce a certainty for their careers.”

Republic Airways raises $415K at annual Plane Pull to grant wishes for terminally ill Indiana children Written by: Scott Thien Republic Airways Corporate Communications
S
imply put, it just keeps getting bigger and better. Last month, Republic Airways’ annual Pulling for Wishes Plane Pull , held April 23 at the Indianapolis Maintenance Center, at the Indianapolis Maintenance Center was a recordsetting event on two fronts – 50 registered pull teams and more than $415,000 raised in donations and team fees to benefit the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund (ICWF). Since 2011, the Company has raised more than $1.4 million for the nonprofit group, which grants wishes like vacations and celebrity visits to seriously or terminally ill children. With an average cost of $6,000 per wish, this year’s Plane Pull will help grant dozens of wishes for ICWF, organizers said. “It was great day, and it just warms my heart to see Republic Associates pull together for such a fantastic event,” said Amy Chiappe, Director of Inflight and Republic’s lead organizer for the event. “The community support and our sponsors were tremendous – we couldn’t have done it without them.” Defending champs LIDS Foundation, Inc. of Indianapolis took home the top prize of 10 roundtrip domestic airfare tickets from American Airlines with a finals pull time of 7.66 seconds. The opponent: a 40-ton American E175 aircraft. Last year, a LIDS team recorded a finals pull time of 6.59 seconds – a record that still stands. Prizes also were awarded for the most raffle tickets sold, best costume and team raising the most money. The Plane Pull is dedicated to the memory of Tyler Frenzel, a Carmel, Ind., boy who suffered from leukemia and passed away in 2004. Tyler’s wish to visit Disney World was granted by ICWF.

Republic Airways CEO Bryan Bedford got in on the action and joined a ceremonial pull team featuring Indianapolis Colts linebacker Robert Mathis, Colts cheerleaders, local sports media reporters, and kids from the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund. Other celebrities on hand included Purdue University President Mitch Daniels, whose aviation program flew in two aircraft for display, and former All-Star pro baseball player Scott Rolen, a longtime supporter of ICWF. As the pull teams battled it out, the kids zone was buzzing with activity with a dizzying array of attractions, including a bounce house, arts and crafts, face-painting, bean-bag toss, balloon animals, stilt walkers and clowns. An exclusive live auction dinner hosted by Robert Mathis added to the fundraising bottom line with bids for a Tito’s Vodka guitar, signed by Tito himself, luggage, jewelry, autographed memorabilia, wines and a golf package with Masters champion Fuzzy Zoeller. Of course, an event of this magnitude wouldn’t be possible without the teamwork of countless employees and support from Republic’s Executive and Leadership teams. “This reason this event is so successful – and why Republic is such a great company – is the generosity, drive for perfection and passion of our Associates,” Amy said. Next year’s Plane Pull is tentatively scheduled for late April 2017. More about the event is at www.rjet.com.
