Hiring of instructors

myron96 · October 7th, 2005, 18:41

Does anyone know if aviator hires people who do not go through the prof. pilot program? Ie, if you finish up down there with your Instr. ratings, and do some timebuilding, would they consider hiring you as an instructor?

Maybe, maybe not, gotta ask mike. Never heard about it happening but i dont think it would be fair to the pro pilot students though

i know a couple of months ago they were hiring outside the school...some people didnt take to well to that though

If they really need the instructors he will hire them for sure. But there are usually enough from the Professional Pilot program to go around...good luck.

it has happened in the past but you will not be promised a job. if they need instructors at the time and mike likes you then your probably in but thats a big if. the other thing is he usually requires 200 hours of ME before you can instruct in the twin.
