Man, I took one look at the title of this thread and thought G200 had been fired...

 

[aeronautic1]

Nope

Owner is typed and didn't need me to go to the islands this weekend. Just trying to pick up a trip.

Sorry man, didn't mean to hijack... The best place I have seen to drum up this kind of work (especially on short notice) is the NBAA Airmail Boards. You might try and get access and post yourself on that... I actually have gotten a job from that board.

Thanks Brother

Thanks Brother. Have a great weekend. I know I am. Flew 34 hours this week alone.

 

[cosmotheassman]

Only 34 hours in a week alone?? LMAO. Bust my 51 in a week then start bragging...

 

[bigD]

Ooooh - you have me beat. I've done 48 in a 7 day span flying jumpers. But was your 51 in a beat up 182?

 

[CapnVegetto]

I've done 13 hours in the last 2 days. But......I've got the next 2 days off. So....I can't beat any of ya'll.

13.9 hours flying time
somewhere around 19 hours from hotel bed to home bed

 

[westwind driver]

I consider it to be my "Hell Week" but it was part of my first trip to Europe, so the flying in the states when we got back just kinda of ran along with the long trip to Europe

 

[aeronautic1]

13.9 hours

Better have been a Part 91 trip!! Bummer.

Have a great bar b que this weekend boys. I am off to my condo in Florida for 5 days of beach, bikinis and beer.

 

[bigD]

Boy, this was certainly a thread hijack, wasn't it?

 

[G100driver]

Now that this thread has been offically hijacked ....

WTF would anyone be talking {almost bragging} about being unsafe.
Just a thought.

Now back on Subject ... Aero have you thought about giving Jeld-Wen a call. They are ALWAYS looking for contractors in their Gulfstream 200's.

Sorry I do not have the number but they are in LMT and I am sure could be located by giving your friendly Gulfstream sales rep a call and he could provide you with the CP's number. The opererate Gulfstream 100's and 200's and always seem to be short handed.

They also seem to do it right. They will fly you out to LMT and pay for your travel days and will not ask you to do stupid stuff .... like work {even if it is travel} for longer than a 14 hour duty day. Seems like a good operation to do contract work.

Well, you know how it is. You're a stupid young kid looking for flight time, and here's a chance to fly a 182 at a drop zone for 10 hours a day. Heck, the skydivers used to bring me burgers, fries, and water from the grill and I'd eat on the way up to 12,000 feet.

Those were the days. Heh!

Best part of flying jumpers is nobody critiques your landings!

Heh - I flew jumpers from a small private grass/dirt strip. I was trying to be cute one day and see how short I could land the plane, and I ended up making a pretty hard core carrier landing. To this day it was one of my worst. So I'm pulling up to pick up the next load of jumpers, and one of them says to me, "Holy sh!t D, now you know why we jump out of your airplane!"

 

[aeronautic1]

Thanks G100

Much appreciated.

13.9 hours flying time

That all happened in a single duty period?

smart, huh???

[ultrarunner]

yeah, really. all you can hope for with folks like this is that they don't line up on the wrong runway for their last landing and land on top of you.

Sounds like a lot of stops. You must be non-RVSM and stuck low. I guess it's not too bad if you're trying to build time.
