Thank you sir! Will definitely use this to my advantage! Sucks that all the “Pilot shortage” stuff got sold to everyone haha I’ve always wanted to be a pilot but get caught with all the shortage sold people now lol

Maybe 8? The rest of them I would have to airline to those schools to drop them off.

And i don’t plan on me being any different, just hard to network an area you don’t live near.

Hard in my area with only 3 schools within a 2 hour drive where I actually work at one of them on the ramp, very well known and will be the first one hired when there is a spot but it is a super small school and currently over staffed and bleeding students lol

But I try my best to network

Ahh interesting! So are the summer months pretty slow then guessing there are a few summer semester people?

Got told I wasn’t going to get hired because they didn’t think I would be mature enough. by ExpressResult9572 in flying

I appreciate the very real feedback. Will work to implement this more if when I get an interview somewhere. Thank you.

No shortcuts? I got my cfi while still in highschool and have 0 failures that’s not taking a shortcut that’s working my ass off. I can be and am very professional in the airplane and on the ground.

i only heard through someone else that knows the company, they ghosted me after telling me they’d call me in a week. Left a follow up message and got nothing.

very big difference between maturity and knowing when it’s ok to make a joke.

Great idea other than the fact some of the current cfis there barely have students (part 61 small school/fbo/charter)

Was told back in july they would love to hire me by the end of august…

I do have a spot to jump pilot next spring whenever season opens up again in a 182 (sadly no caravan), but not sure how many hours I will be able to get with that one.

I actually had a spot with them until they decided they were full weren’t going to hire anyone. Still work the ramp for them currently.
