Get a float rating with 50 hours or an instructor rating, it will cost you 10 K. They are taken by 1000 hour instructors and float pilots. To simply answer your question, there are none. Have you read the sticky thread in the other forum?" And then, since you're already are planning to hit the road, as Nike commercials say, "Just Do It".Įdit: I'll also channel my inner Clippy here, and ask "It looks like you're posting about road trips. What I would personally recommend would be either a) make a solid resume that you could hand to any employer, and print a stack of them, or b) bring some sort of device with you that would let you edit it (and then stop by a copy shop in town to print it). The short answer is, if I (or, really, anyone else) tell you "Go to such-and-such place, talk to such-and-such", by the time you get there, there's going to be at least a few others that were closer - unless the job is in your back yard. Some of them might even be as simple as "hey, I heard is finishing school, he/she's a pretty solid dude/dudette" - "oh yeah? give them a call, see if they want to hop on". A lot of them might have a thought about opening one up when a pilot leaves, and might already have a list of resumes they want to call before even thinking of posting it. I'll put it this way: some of those jobs are open for maybe a week.

If one's only skill is flying airplanes though, maybe it makes sense to work one's ass off on the ramp making less money than burger flippers. We can't pay you enough to cover rent though. The trick is to be useful at something else so you have a decent job making decent money while turning down such offers as $40 a day Navajo co-pilot (That company killed 2 of the guys who took that job that year) or "Yeah we need rampies up here in Ft McMurray and you could be flying within a year.
When I was looking for my first job I went through the TC Civil Aircraft Register and tried to call the owner of every commercially registered single engine piston in Western Canada. Then King Air co-pilot and it's all gravy from there. However, I never worked a ramp so here are some possibilities: My first job was skydivers at $5 a load. I'm pretty sure they are reserved for pilots who don't use CAPS LOCK.
