Research Help
Being an unemployed pilot sucks but most of us have been there. Only thing you can do is keep looking and keep applying. They'll never call you if you don't call them first. Set up a file system and keep track of who you call and if they even give you a courtesy reply or not. Take a day off from the shop and put on the suit and go door to door at the local big airport to the charter companies.... everybody (in Houston anyway) is running short staffed but business is picking up to the point where everybody is also going to be looking for help soon and if you happen to be in the right place at the right time you could find yourself sitting in the right seat of a Lear/Citation/King Air/etc...
Some research tools I used when I was looking (and still look at now and then to see if anything better pops up):

Good luck, hope it works out... it does to those that are persistant. All you can do is pass this on to your husband.... it's up to him to decide if he wants to be persistant.
