ME Turbine PIC jobs in the Pacific NW

[Dignan]

Howdy all,

Just wondering if anyone knows of any places hiring into ME Turbine PIC jobs in the SEA or PDX area (cargo/Amflight, corp, anything). I know in the current hiring situation this is probably a stupid question, but I've spent a lifetime asking stupid questions and figure why stop now, right? I have 3 yrs of Pt. 135 PIC (all piston) and two years as a 121 FO (current gig)--the company I work for now is great and I like my job a lot, but upgrade keeps moving farther away and I'm just exploring my options for getting some PIC time.
Thanks for any info you can provide. Take it easy and fly safe.

Nope--the competition (SKW).

Northwest AMF bases are pretty senior and hire only into the piston. I know the piston guys in Seattle are really stuck waiting for upgrades into turbine unless they want to bid out to other bases.

Otherwise there may turbine positions company wide in different parts of the country...Texas, midwest, eastcoat?

I don't know of any other turbine cargo operators up here. There's Empire flying caravans and I think a Fokker. But I think they're out of Boise.


Best of luck!
