Thread: Copa

I'm thinking about taking a job with COPA, any suggestions?
Cheers,

I have always had my eyes on COPA once I have all my flight ratings. I hear good and bad things about the company in regard to how they treat their flight crew. Have you researched them on Jetcareers.com and pprune.org?

Are you a Panamanian citizen or will you be coming in as an expat?

I'm and expat...us thanks for the info! I just started looking around for information. It looks like a nice area and the women look attractive.

I haven't been to Panama in 13 years but what I remember was amazing! My assumption is that you're on the Q for a regional in the states. You probably already know that COPA's minimums are 5000 TT for Captains, 1000 TT for First Officers however I don't think that they are currently hiring FO's.

Did you have any specific questions on Panama? I may not be the best to answer them since it has been so long since I lived there, however I'm sure the others here would be glad to help out.

I've applied for the 737 Captain. I'm currently flying the Q, but have many hours on the Jet. I heard that the pay and work rules are not that good. I'm just thinking about it???? I should take a couple of days and look around the area, maybe talk to a few pilots working at Copa could help. Thanks for taking the time to help out.
