How much pay would you ask for?

It's not his first aircraft. He has a Cessna 400 series. As far as pressure to fly in bad weather, I'll have to talk about that at the negotiation. I have some experiece in inclement weather, but like I said with 500tt, it's not a ton. I guess it seems as though some on this board may think that I'm underexperienced to take on this job. I've always considered myself a conservative and safe pilot, but what (generally) is the average experiece for an aircraft like this one? Surely, your 2000 hour pilots normally wouldn't be the typical pilot for this would they?

If your meeting gos well with him, I would take the job. I was around 600tt was I started flying corporate in a seneca 5. It was a different animal than a 152/172, but I didn't have any problems. Make sure you know your aircraft well and are well prepared for every flight. In today's world of first officers having 300tt on the high side(regionals), you would be a good canidate for the job. It will also be great experience for you.

Haha

I found this old thread and thought I'd update it. Man, a lot has changed in a year and a half. When I started this thread I had 500tt and thought this was an entry level job. Well I just GOT that job today and I have 1900tt and feel like I've won the lottery. I feel kind of like an idiot reading those first posts I made. "Surely a 2000 hour pilot wouldn't want this job..." Oh, the irony.

Absolutely no stake in the company - I've just taken Mike's course and plan to use him when I buy my plane.

It's actually Part 91 and it pays $300/day. About 3 flights a week.

Guys, I have a similar question --

I have been training people to fly the PC-12 NG. I have two clients... One of them has asked me to consider managing the aricraft. I have some experience in this, but do not know where to start on charging him. Can anyone give me some ideas? The plane is new, it is a NG. I have been training him to fly it so, it will be owner owned and I may fly with him every now and then...

My experience:
