Hi, I have been flying skydivers for the summer. Season is coming to an end and I am looking for some place to go for the winter and perhaps into next spring and summer (depending on what this new gig is). Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
 
Where are you located? I work at one DZ that jumps year round in C182s. Right in the middle of the freezing cold winter.

It would probably help to know what you've been flying. If you've been with single engine Cessnas, you might be targeting one DZ. If you've been flying an otter or van, then another. More info please.

What are your times? This is kinda like pulling teeth. The more info you supply the more accurate our help can be, but I'll say I'm only going to put so much energy in getting information because I have my own work to line up....see what I'm getting at? Help us help you.

Thanks for the reply. I have close to 700TT, of which about 300 was flying jumpers in a 182. I am located in AZ. i also have CFI/IIVMEI with about 100h of dual given. I am hoping to fly something like a 206/7 or bigger. I also help the mechanic with 100h and annual inspections of airplanes but dont hold A&P. This is all the info i can think of. I can relocate anywhere because I am single.
 
since you've got the CFI, and don't mind doing that, there seems to be lots of that available.
