Want Corporate Flight Dept Position in FL or PA

[Buddy1958]

I am looking for a corporate pilot or charter job in FL or PA. I have a home in both states; Lancaster, PA & Ormond Beach, FL. I'm retired Air Force (1997) and am looking for a secure (preferrably) corporate job, but have some experience with on-call charter (Aerostars, Aztecs, & Navajos).
I am currently working as a CFI for a JAA/FAA flight school and can pull up stakes anytime.
Thanks to anyone who might be able to help!

there is a place in EVB flying King airs. I believe they go through pilots fast. you my want to pop your head in.

 

[Buddy1958]

Thank you! I'll do that! If you run accros any other ideas, I'm all ears! Fly safe!

Vintage Props in New Symrna.
they had some nastyhos a few years back.

how are they doing since that semi gear up in DAB?
with one of their precious King Airs.
I wanted to work for them back in the day but was warned by the local DE about the low pay(or PFT) basically to get in there.
seemed like a cool gig though.
good luck,
X47!

Thanks guys. I appreciate the input. But surely, Jet & Props can'tbe the only gig in the DAB-area...and I ain't paying for no stinkin'training they should be paying for anyway!

 

[Yeah]

Well is your total time 1400, and how much multi, or turbine?

 

[Buddy1958]

300+ multi

flew charters out of FLL and met up with the vintage guys in marsh harbour (bahamas) all the time. I never heard about the PFT from some of the FOs but overall heard vintage was a good place to work for and they also fly a beech1900 into treasure cay and marsh harbour also. They fly A LOT of passengers to and from the bahamas. At least give em a try

Been there

I used to work there waaaayy back. Great owners, they will bend backwards for you. It has grown a lot and they have a great business there. Pay is not the highest but consider Quality of life, home every night! Heck perhaps I should go back......Insurance has forced them to stop the single pilot thing so 2 pilots are in the seats now..More oportunity for lower time guys...They have their own mx and do a good job keeping them up and running. Yes they did have a gear failure years back and I knew the pilot well (great guy) he handled it well and it never even put a bubble in the business. Except for having to fix a King Air..I think you have a good chance at FO there.. Not sure about a Capt with 300 multi and no turbine... Good Luck to you....and good luck on the next hurricane season....

Folks on this board...

have memberships to NBAA.. Just put a post up asking any one of those guys..(Thanks to you guy doing it!!). Find all the airports in the area that you consider driveable in LRP or DAB and they will list them out for you a great place to start...
Good Luck and congrats on the retirement!

Yo Buddy 1958

Did you call anyone? If so how did it go?

 

[Buddy1958]

Yep - Talked w/Airnet HR, etc.

I talked w/ Airnet HR on Monday and have been asked to go up for an interview later this month. I haven't been over to Vintage - yet - but will drop off my resume soon. I actually went over there (down to EVB) last September...but couldn't get anyone to look up from what they were doing long enough to even ackknoweldge I was there...and I'm NOT a small guy! Anyway, I'll give them another chance...thanks for the suggestion about NBAA. I appreciate it more than you know! Flyin' is what I love - and flyin' is where I'll alway be! Eating peanuts, or caviar - I could care less! As long as I'm flying!

Sitting second in line:

If you have, or get contact information at Vintage, pass it on. I am trying to get back into the Florida market and with PA-31 and BE1900 time it seems like a good opportunity.

Thanks.

Epic aviation has a 414 on charter and I think a citation, but not sure. I know the owner of the 414, real good guy. Not sure if they're looking for people or not, last time I heard they were. Epic is squeaky clean as well.
