So im on day 8 of my 3rd furlough now. Since graduating from ERAU in 2006 I have been furloughed from SKYWAY, AIRNET, and Now AIRNOW. I have an ATP and I am type rated in D-328J and EMB-110 with 2500TT 1,050 Turbine, 450 Turbine PIC, 1750 PIC total and about 600 SIC. Due to the furloughs I have had to move in the past 5 years from KDAB to KRIC to KMKE to KFXE to KPTK to now KDDH (bennington, vt). I am really trying to find a job out of Florida somewhere that will pay at least $30,000/year minimum. If any one knows of anything down there that could help please let me know. Also, in the meantime if anyone knows of anything out of KALB in the meantime please do tell...I really just want to get back home to Florida and have a stable job....As many of you know it feels awful having to drag your family around the country time and time again to pursue your career.......Fly Safe-----JASON:)
 
Good Stuff....I just sent an email to them with my resume. I looked at their website and it would be perfect for what I am looking for. Does anybody have a contact there or any suggestions to help me get my foot in the door...

Don't know what you've gotten from Baer Air but you should know that the work there is sporadic, and thus, you reconsider applying to Eagle ect.
 
I guess I just can't bare the thought of going through first year regional FO life again!!! It's all good though... I actually got a call last night and got the ball rolling on a Metro III PIC Position for 40K wooohooo! lets hope that pans out and thank you all for the suggestions..:)
 
If the Metro job doesn't pan out, a job for a Do328 Captain and FO was just listen on climbto350.com in South Florida.

whereat in South Florida?

Well I guess that's irrelevant, who is the contact is more relevant,
 
Yeah theres a lot of scab carriers down here paying under 15K... Another is Yellow Air Taxi, I don't specifically know that they're hiring but with the movement lately and your experience your chances are good. They fly 402s, pretty much just Bahamas VFR milk runs mostly and they start right around 30K. And while your at it, just poke your head in around FXE, there are a lot of great opportunities there for sure and plenty of corporate jets that need someone to warm the right seat... at the very least make some contacts you know?
 
Quick question, why can you not go back to Skywest? Does their commitment to calling you back ends if you get employed anywhere? What about seniority? Either way since they are hiring, why haven't you applied there, among other regionals?
