Here is a job I turned down. Be cautious because they promise sic time in a king air 90. Know your regs. Best of all, they do mile high club flights in the King Air 90. Job description at Air Reldan, Inc. Air Reldan is a small operator located at the Greater St Tammany Regional Airport, located 35 miles north of New Orleans. The operation has been in business for over 27 years, the first 22 years at the New Orleans Lakefront Airport, and at its current location since then. We still do operations from Lakefront, and at New Orleans International Airport. We currently have 5 aircraft, 2 Cessna 172’s, 2 Piper Seneca II’s and a King Air 90. The largest part of the operation is air charter in which we use 4 of the 5 aircraft. We do aerial buoy drops 1-2 times a month our over the Gulf of Mexico, generally a 4 to 5 hour sortee (done under part 91), and have been doing them for about 18 years. We also do aerial banner towing, flight training, photo flights and aerial tours. Our aerial banner towing operation is not a large operation, but LSU games in Baton Rouge, Mardi Gras and JazzFest are the heaviest banner times of the year. Other than that, operations are somewhat sporatic. We currently use one of the Cessna 172’s equipped with a 180 hp engine for the banner towing. We train our own pilots for banner towing including the pickups of the banner, and the art of slow flying with the banner at 45-55 knots. Not all pilots can handle the slow speeds for a few hours, and picking up the banner requires a fairly steep pullup prior to picking up the banner at a fairly slow airspeed, so if this is not something within your demeaner, please do not apply for the job as banner towing will be required in this position, as well as putting the banner together and groundcrewing the setup. The flight training was the largest part of the operation, but since we moved to St Tammany, the flight training has become very light. We train under part 61 using the Cessna 172’s. We do a fair amount of siteseeing flights including romantic champagne flights, wine and cheese flights, and mile high club flights. We also do photo flights and survey flights over land and over the gulf (in the twins). The buoy drops over the Gulf generally consists of dropping 8-10 floating buoys into the loop currents, positions are defined by the customer. Buoys are attached to a 150 foot tether with a small parachute which acts as a droge once in the water. We use the Piper Seneca’s for these flights, which vary from 525 miles to close to 700 miles. The air taxi flights utilize the Cessna, the Seneca’s and the King Air. A lot of these flights are organ transplant teams (you will generally be copiloting on these flights) or hotshotting human organs to various locations. Lately we have begun hotshotting blood to Birmingham on a fairly regular bases, using the Cessna and sometimes the Seneca. Much of the time, there is very little notice, and a lot of night flying. When things get slow, as they invariably do from time to time, helping out around the office will be expected. At times you will be expected to clean up the aircraft (washing or cleaning up the interior, although we do have part time help doing this some of the time). Of course, when things get busy, you may have students or other flying going on during the day, and that night a popup flight comes up and it turns into a very long day (and night). However, after any such event, you will always be given time off to “recover”. We do not make demands of pilots that they can not safely handle, do to weather or fatigue factors or whatever. Time off will generally be one weekend a month, and a weekday during the other weeks, and when things are light, there will be additional time off. When things are heavy, I will probably push you to the extent you think you can go. You will need to be able to survive on $2000/month. I may be able tohelp out with a place to stay for a month or 2, and we currently have a rental home vacant, but once it rents you will have to have a place to live near the airport. If you are looking to jump start you career in aviation, build time and can work a lot of strange hours, this job will work for you. But it is paramount that flying is a passion for you. If you can take it or leave it, this job is not for you, don’t waste your time and mine by applying. On a desire to fly scale of 1-10, if you are 5 to 9, it won’t work (I won’t even mention the 1-4 part of the scale). If I haven’t chased you away at this point, and you feel you can handle the night flying charter (a lot of which will be single engine) and the banner towing, then let me know and we can set up an interview. I do need to hire someone soon. Neil Nadler Air Reldan, Inc. Email: nnadler@airreldan.com |

1000TT and below? I believe the best way is just to pay your dues and do some good old flight instructing. Right now, is the BEST time to time build. The reason is, that while lots of your peers are sitting on the ground not building time, you could be getting ahead of them by Instructing. If we project the airlines/corporate outfits to start hiring again in 2-3 years, you would be that much ahead of everybody else! I do believe the 1500 TT for pilots will be implemented by the government, in which case many would be left by the wayside. I know Flight Instructing jobs are scarce, but just keep applying to as many flight schools as you can, until you can get on with one. I would focus on flight schools that are located at a larger GA airport, in which you could also work at a Local FBO part-time and develop some connections. You can search all of the forums, submit your resume to every single job available, and pay subscription fees for EVERY job site out there. I'm not discouraging you to do these things, as I own my own job site myself, but nothing beats networking. Networking will allow you to get the jobs that are not being advertised. The majority of positions are not advertised. Especially for Corporate/contract jobs, it's all about networking. That is just my two cents... |
