I can't help you I'm afraid but I wanted to complement your post for it's thoroughness, intellingence, and merit.

Usually these requests read no further than "anyone know of any dream jobs in _______"?

...I second that...wish I could help, but I'm in the midwest. Good for you for sticking to your standards. Wish more pilots were like that. Best of luck to you...

Interesting. From an outsider looking in, I had thought your company was a "dream" job as well. I know of someone that works there and he seems happy...however after your post it seems it's going a bit downhill.

I think a friend of mine might work for aramark, based in Philly I believe, for their corporate department. It was his "dream" job. I'll send an email and see if he ended up there.

Good Post - but keep your mind on what is going to get you to the next level -- and its not flying piston twins..not without serious contacts at your "dream job".

Look for that jet SIC job with quick upgrade - like one maybe availiable at charter outfits etc...you may just have one more step before that dream job...

Also remember that being safe, going missed, writing up broken planes, etc....is not being an exceptional individual - its your job. plain and simple. These aren't what someones going to be looking for-they arent selling points - these are just the norm - they are expected coming in the door.

I do think your credentials are very impressive and that once that resume looks a little more "corporate" you will have no problem!

Just some thoughts...Good Luck!


PS - I wouldnt worry about the guard thing too much..many of the dept managers you will meet were in the same boat - and many folks, including myself, Thank You and respect you for doing it.

Not sure where you live but leg work at TTN is another avenue. J&J and Pfizer usually let me in the door to drop off a resume. Been doing it twice a year for the past several years.

One of the retired 0-2/A37 guys from your unit used to be the CP or DO for J&J. Not sure if he's still there but ask one of the senior guys in your unit like Scott H about him. I think his name is DOC or thats what they called him. If he's still there it may be an "in" at J&J for you. I believe DOC was a STAN/EVAL pilot if that helps jog the other guys memorys'.

Also as of Feb Pace has a 737 based at ABE flying vacation charters.

From the RDG area your not far from BWI or EWR so CitationShares may be good to keep you flying while looking for something better.

Hope it helps, Good luck.
