Find a drop zone and start flying skydivers. Get checked out in a rental twin engine and start logging a few twin hours...once you get comfortable, get some real IFR time.RTF said:I'm a recently retired Army helicopter driver who started flying late in life. I have a commerical ticket and 671 hrs in rotor wing and about 100 in fixed. I want to fly for a civlian company, any company. Do I have a shot at gaining employment with my hrs. ?
With your current experience, it's going to be difficult to find a job that will allow you to live a descent lifestyle; but having a military retirement check every month will certainly help. You didn't say how old you are. If you're in your 40's suck it up pay your dues and get on with it - you will be able to do anything you want to. I've got an retired Army buddy who just retired and he's 60. If you're in that boat then go get your CFI and find a nice flight school and enjoy.RTF said:I'm a recently retired Army helicopter driver who started flying late in life.
