Godspeed Dan Lawlor, 1972-2005.

I see he is not forgotten.

Very interesting....

What kind of military work are we talking about here? Is a majority of the flying drone work? What about weapons firing/testing? Formation work and low level?

Also.....Is this a company that puts mins out there and waits for the military guys to call and gives civy guys the run-around? Or are that actually asking for just flight time and not combat time? I have been trying to get on with Dyncorp for three years and they give me the run-around all the time because I am not military. I would seriously consider this position. Is there a contract?

Ruskie, target tow, electronic warfare, formation flying, low level occasionally.

Phoenix supports the Dept. of Defense domestically and overseas.

They can provide more details, but this should fill in a few blanks for you.

Cool, calling them in the early morn.....

Do they have a bunch of lears based at Newport News, VA at PHF. Flight International has a bunch of them or are they separate companys.

Phoenix is a separate company, but has two Lears at KPHF.

2 Lears based at PHF

I believe they are still separate companies. Phoenix was set to buy FI at one time, as rumor has it, but backed down when they realized one competitor in their contracting field would increase revenue during the bidding wars Phoenix most always won.

Tailwinds...

I would like to work for either one of them. FI seems to be like fedex, you have to know about 10 people to get a job. I just sent my stuff to phoenix, but my lack of military time will probably keep me out. Seems a little more exciting then going to a regional.

Yeah, whats the deal with these folks? I can't get them to respond to my emails!
