Default Helo pilot's craigslist ad

Saw this on Craigslist.com - thought it was funny - I mean at least hide the fact that you're not a commercial pilot if you're going to try to violate the FARs.


Are You looking for a Helicopter pilot Florida area?

I'm the pilot for you.

Executives?
need a cheap pilot?

I'll fly you Or any load where you want it to go.

I do not have a commercial license, But we can work something out.

Very safe. Experienced in large and light helicopters


Respond with name and phone #

state the nature of your request.

serious inquiries only.

Yeah, I thought about that, but I don't want to have to post a message in the "announcements" section about how ratting on someone inspired the FAA to look into my own flying and pull my ticket because I once got 5-feet too close to a cloud.

Did I ever tell you about the night that I landed in Miami and had the FBI, DEA, DHS, Customs, Dade County Sheriff's Dept and Miami PD all waiting on the ramp with dogs?

True story . . .
