Just moved to Charlotte and wondering if there is any corporate flying around here? A buddy of mine told me about Nascar but not sure how to go about looking into them. I am fixed wing and helicopter qualified and will fly either of them at this point. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I have about 7500 TT and most recently flew EMS but I am ready to move on.

Thanks

Nascar flying is extremely hard to get into, you basically need to know someone. You might try Lowes Home Improvement, they on occassion are looking for dual rated guys. The corporate flight departments here are fairly tied up and usually there is no movement. Good luck in your search.

I would turn you to MercyAir Med. CMC's flight department. THey have Helo's and Fix wings. I know a few people that fly helo's for Air Methods up in INT as well. I know you said you don't want EMS, but those companies are normally looking for people.

Concord (JQF) you can look into Spitfire Aviation and Carolina Air Charter.
Jet Logistics Inc out of RDU has come planes based in the CLT area and I heard they are looking for some pilots.

Hope this helps!

Dont know if they need any pilots but Wachovia just ordered 5 new Challengers. Dont know if they are replacing aircraft, or adding or what.

Replacing the Citations from what I've heard.

You may want to try Coca Cola Bottling. Their hangar is beside Wachovia's and they have a helo (S-76 if I remember correctly). They also have a GII (or is it a 3?) and I think a Citiation XL.

Coke just sold their G11/ helo and laid off flt dept employees.

Oops..my bad. Hadnt heard that.

For the original poster and for the Coke folks:

Goodrich are looking for a C750/CL604 CP in CLT
SAS are looking for a BE400/C750 Captain at RDU
NC Dept of Commerce are looking for fixed wing and/or RW pilot at RDU
Mountain Air Cargo are looking for a KA90 corporate pilot/Director of Safety at Denver (just north of CLT, near Lincolnton).
