That was cool, the planes skippin their wheels across the water and all. I was always under the impression that your gear would dig in and try to flip you if they got in the water, they got skills either way.

Just like the thread is titled you need to go out and physically beat on some doors. I don't know where you are at, but I was in your position. I was looking for a job to finance a CFI rating and I went to every building on the busiest field I could find hoping to get a job pumping gas. The very last place on the field I went called me the day I walked my resume in and offered me a job on the line. I quickly found out that a good number of the pilots there got their start doing exactly what I was doing. In a few months I had a replacement on the line and I was a full time pilot.
You're opportunities aren't going to some from the places with the shiny jets and beautiful facilities. Its going to some from the mom and pops in the back corner of the field that will let you ride in 310's because they like the way you work. If they like the way you fly they will let you sit right seat when they need an extra pilot in the bigger aircraft. Rather than think about all the big names you hear on FI all the time, go to the places that you have never heard of, shake some hands and show them that you are a person, not just some address on the top of a resume. If an employer truly likes you and the way you work they will reward you. There are a lot of opportunities out there. The harder you work the luckier you get.

If you want the S.E. try Flight Express. They fly C-210 for the new guys with eventual upgrade to the BE-58 . Since you have less than 1200 hours ( Required for IFR part 135) you can go VFR with over 500 hours. Main base is Tampa I believe, but they have out stations throughout the SE.

There are some other companies out there that hire into the SIC program...You can also look at air cargo carriers, air now,

Tell you what..just go to www.airlinepilotcentral.com for company information.

Flight express is out of Orlando, the executive airport I believe.

I was going to go with them a year anda half ago, as I thought they were the only one to take someone with low multi time. If you have 50 hours you have other options but with less, it is probably one of your only options for PIC.

try airnet... they have a sic program and you don't need much multi! good luck

You are right..sorry about that. Tampa is where some of the maintenance is done, and Orlando Executive is another place. I remember everynight I would see a 210 up on jacks going through a 100 hour or an annual at the hanger in TPA.
