Eclipse Pilot Wannabes - Opp in Louisiana

5000 hours to fly an Eclipse?

If that's what I have to look forward to when I reach those mins, I'm getting out of this business.

Aw come on now...what kind of "team player" attitude is that?

I'd be happy to fly the turbine Seneca around as long as the pay and QOL was good. Actually, now that I think about it...a Seneca has a more comfortable (and higher quality) interior.

Helluva bird! Got that baby up to mach 3 yesterday....

Is that a typo? Perhaps you meant Mach .3? Hehe.

what about all the good Lake Charles women you could get? Heck you could sing this song:
ARTIST: The Band
TITLE: Up on Cripple Creek

When I get off of this mountain
You know where I want to go
Straight down the Mississippi river
To the Gulf of Mexico

To Lake Charles, Louisiana
Little Bessie, girl that I once knew
And she told me just to come on by
If there's anything she could do

{Refrain}
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me
If I spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak she defends me
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one

Found this on Avcrew.com. Interesting because it sort of sets the bar for part 91 expectations with regard to the Eclipse. Of course no details on the compensation/benefits. With those time requirements, someone could probably find a decent Citation or Lear position in the Southeast too. I would expect this salary would need to be high in order to attract qualified people. Perhaps they will throw in some good gumbo allowance....
