Bush Pilot?

[Bushav8er]

7500TT, 1500 seaplane, 200 BE18 floats, 2000 turbine, 125 C-208 amphib, 1500 retract, current Flight Saftey and G1000, Advanced Seaplane Institute Certification, First responder first aid certificate

$3,000.00 Monthly for 40 hours per week??

For time/experience like that I would expect a min of $4000/mt- no?

[bezerker]

Uh, closer to $8,000 IMHO.

[Rowdy]

8k sounds about right.. I'm not sure that ad is correct.

[Sam300]

Must be a mistake or someone is being very cheap

[phillyfan]

Oh I can assure you he's cheap.

[Northern Skies]

Oh I can assure you he's cheap.

lol.

Someone with a quarter of those qualifications can expect double that pay, even in a slump.... I want to pass thru A-town this summer just to see who went for that ad.

[shannon]

I'm really curious if there is anyone out there with those qualifications who would even consider it. If there is than all hope is lost.

[Krashman]

I like the part....

Work Environment: Outside, at heights, noisy

Um okay... maybe they should also mention to bring a paper bag lunch with you everyday in case you get hungry...

[ruminate]

Credentials (certificates, licences, memberships, courses, etc.): Commercial Pilot Licence - fixed wing, Airline Pilot Transport Licence - fixed wing, Flight instrument rating, Visual Flight Rating, Multi-instrument Flight Rating, Landplane and Seaplane Endorsements

I was rather shocked at this add and I knew it needed to be viewed here.

[xsbank]

A university degree is useful so you can read those long dissertations while at your remote base.

Anyone have any clue why flying a caravan or a beaver would require such requirements? Insurance?

[Lost Lake]

1 Owners are american
2 Probably the hours the last guy had
3 You forgot to mention the pay - $3000/mon to fly a 206, beaver, 208 amphib and a PC12

IMHO these guys know sfa about flying. The worst part is the cp is a 22,000 hr guy. I guess he makes $4,000/mon

Oh yeah, and you have to have retractable, turbine, and G1000 experience. And bring your own ky jelly

Advanced Seaplane Institute Certification,

Where could I get that?

I would love to get it to add to my collection of " Qualifications ".

I might consider working for them if the work is only five consecutive days a month, assuming of course they pay for my " Seaplane Institute Certification ".

[JAG]

There's a possibility that the job had to be posted for legal reasons. The candidate is likely hired already (or will be) but to circumvent too many additional applications, the job is tailored to the candidate.

It's possible that it's immigration related (or similar) and that the poster has to prove that the job listing was circulated.

[Cat Driver]

Obviously the add is tailored to fit.

However when they ask for a certain qualification one would expect there is a means of acquiring said qualification.

So where do you go to get this one?

Advanced Seaplane Institute Certification

[tsgas]

This would only work for someone that was retired and wanted to do some fishing in their spare time.

[Phlyer]

Sounds like a good gig. I applied.

3 You forgot to mention the pay - $3000/mon to fly a 206, beaver, 208 amphib and a PC12

Where does it say anything about a 206, Beaver or PC12? The only types I see mentioned are a B-18 and C-208.

[Tuk U]

I read that and laughed my head off, I must say it was the funniest thing I've read in a while,..... come now boys you don't think this is for real, I just thought someone posted it for a laugh....

[JMACK]

It is very odd I thought I was reading a resume at first. WT #@$^ over!

Check the website in the ad.

How come I can't find them in a search of the CTA or TC operator list search?

[aviator2010]

because the operator is private and not required to have an OC

[draggintails]

when i saw this job post i almost fell out of my seat. i look at this as an insult. if you have that experience you better bet your boots that guys want you and will PAY you what your actually worth. i think thats the nicest way i can put it without getting blocked.

cheers

[Widow]

Aren't they carrying passengers for reward?
