summer flying job??

[TXaviator]

alright, time to try and ##### myself out for the summer!!

who wants a 200TT wonderboy, and is also willing to give him some weekends off for aerobatics comps?


(not joking really, any good leads on a summer gig?)

You might be able to find a part time flying job flying traffic watch. If you have some tail wheel time either towing banners or gliders. Maybe even flying as a jump pilot for a skydiving company. Where are you located? Are you willing to relocate a few months in the summer?

There are some available in Alaska.

Forgot about Alaska. A lot of opportunities up there. Not sure if they would like your time though. But it's definitely worth looking into.

Stop by any airport near any coast.

They'll hire you to tow some banners.

Do you have to have your Commercial to tow banners? or can you have just you PPL and a Tailwheel endorsement?

well, if you're getting paid to be in the plane piloting it, you need a commercial ticket.

There is a place just across the river in PA, see I told you it was better , that does tail wheel. It is called Van Sant. Nice little grass strip, I plan on getting my tail wheel there as soon as I get my PPL. http://www.vansantairport.com/tailwheel.html

Very true! Banner towing is one of the few jobs you can get with a wet commercial ticket, aside from CFI of course.

I was going more along the lines of avoiding busting regs by "holding out", etc... but yeah if you have a pulse then some 121 carriers will hire you!
