The newly established Gateway program partnerships UND/ERAU with Cape Air and JetBlue.
A student at UND or ERAU accepted into the program will go to college for 4 years. Sophomore year their is an internship at Cape Air during the summer. After graduation the student will work as a flight instructor at UND/ERAU (where ever you attended) to build up time for ATP minimums, most likely for 1 1/2 years. Then a job at Cape Air is guaranteed at Captain of a C402. After working at Cape Air for 2 years, an interview at JetBlue is guaranteed and most likely the student will be hired over other interviewees.
This program seems pretty fair to me, seeing one can make it to a major airline at around age 26/27.|||The only JetBlue "guarantee" is an interview -
Cape Air - yes, that might be... Salary probably peanuts -
Do they provide the paperwork for food stamps too...?
With 100 applicants for every 5 openings, no "hiring guarantee" -
Most likely hired - Who says "most likely"...? Did you dream...?
Again, ERAU has another scheme to empty your wallet -
Pilots trainees are the most gullible people on earth -
Good luck, buddy -
Spending $300,000 total for a worthless degree and a CPL certificate -
No thanks, to get a salary of $18,000/year gross at Cape Air -
Or do you have to "donate" your time, fly for free as well...?
Beyond my civilized understanding -
Edit -
I hate to rain on your parade -
But F/O pay is $9.oo/hr on C-402 = 70 hrs/mo = $630.oo per month -
Captain pay is $15.00/hr on C-402 = 70 hrs/mo = $1,050.oo per month -
Here are the Cape Air C-402 pilot rates -

To make $18,000 gross per year, you have to fly an ATR as F/O...
Sorry - The C-402 pays next to nothing - Cape Air is a joke -
The $35-39K per year is start pay as ATR captain -
QED -
My apologies to repeat my statement -
Pilot trainees are the most gullible people on earth -
Can you read Ingliche, Se帽or...?
