looking in Northrn California for a flying job!!!

[PC12Cowboy]

Looking for any info for flying jobs in Northern California...other than ameriflight.
Have PC12 type specific training(yes I know NOT an 8410 A/C) and some Citation time as well...Any info is always good
And we are our own best resources.
Thank for your time

Hi.. wher are you flying now? and the Pilatus you flew, was that in Mather? Are you still flying the citation?

 

[PC12Cowboy]

No its at Lincoln and one I fly is at the Nut Tree, I just got back form Dallas in the Citation

 

[pa56pa]

Ok, I knew of a Pilatus operator out of Mather, that flies to Colorado quite a bit and was planning on purchasing a Citation. I was just curious what ever happened to them.

 

[PC12Cowboy]

Hmmm Kewl...is he looking for a pilot...I would love to stay here beings I own a home in Sac

What's up with Ameriflight? Should they be avoided? I'm going to be new to corporate aviation in about 2 years, so give me some advice. I, too, live in the Sacramento area.

 

[pa56pa]

Well, I haven't heard from them in a while, if I do, I'll let you know...

And as for Ameriflight, they are to be avoided, unless you're desperate for hours... the pay sucks, and so does their maintenance, at least as of a few years back. Who knows, things may have changed.

I'm Still looking and NEED A JOB!!!LOL

 

[moving2vegas]

are your listed times correct?

I'm Still looking and NEED A JOB!!!LOL

I assume you're working for atkin. If those times are correct and your flying a PC-12 and a citation, I'd consider it a gift. Wish I had the chance fly such A/C with 1200 hrs. I don't know your situation, but with that type of experience a jump straight to the majors isn't out of the relm of possibility. What exactly are you looking for?

 

[PC12Cowboy]

Moving....NOPE not at atkin...THANK GOD!!!!...I am fortunate to be part 91 on the 12...times are correct and I need a friggin job...lol.....even sky trek at MOD if I can get in

 

[moving2vegas]

yada yada yada

man, all that and you said nothing. What are you looking to do? Charter, medivac, cargo, airlines, need twin time, WTF? You ask for help from the board, yet you don't give anything (other than you won't work for amflight) to help out. Just spit it out. People will be more willing to help. I could just start spewing out 135 and 121 operators if that what you want.

 

[PC12Cowboy]

Vegas 135...part 91....anything flying...AMflight wont even call me????
Even 121...but I need a job...FLYING...pretty straight forward I thought...lol

 

[moving2vegas]

Amflight has a new CP, might try them again

Redding aero has cargo 402 at mather, usually looking.

union flights and west air have had recent ads for 208 drivers.

skywest seems to be hiring.

There is (or use to be) a passenger operation running schuduled bay area runs out of SAC with caravans, can't remember the name.

Most bay are charter ops have been running ads like mad.

There is a 421 operator in Auburn, wolf air or something like that. Also try auburn flying service.

Reach air med, but I think you need more time.

Bakersfield air charter is occasionally looking.

Every charter operator from the grapevine south seems to be hiring these days. Those are a few that come to mind right now.

Vegas ,
Thanks I will start working those leads

 

[PC12Cowboy]

Bump!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[propsarebest]

go over to MHR and see Vic at Mather Aviation. He might be able to give u a line or two. They are a PC-12 service center, he might be able to hook u up with ferry flights and such. GOOD LUCK!!!!

 

[PC12Cowboy]

Props...Thanks....we service our 12 there.......but this annual is going to idaho...getting a GNS480 installed....But I'd love to get in on those ferry flights...I'll stop by and see him...thanks for the info....

<just found out I'm gonna be a DAD

[52Vincent]

Whats wrong with the one you have?

 

[kingairyahoo]

...even sky trek at MOD if I can get in

...check your PMs'

 

[Huggyu2]

Vegas,
Assuming one was able to get hired for the best paying job of the ones you listed that were in Northern CA, what would that pay be? How much would it improve over the next 3-5 years?
I'm curious is these companies pay poor, good, or great.
Thanks.
