Blackwater response,..
To the Pilot asking about Blackwater Aviation,
I called Blackwater on the phone one day and asked for the
Chief Pilot,.. and they transferred me. Very straight forward no
bs guy. He said that he looks for pilots that have
dead reckoning pilotage experience,..ie finding things and
destinations that a GPS can't, and very solid stick an rudder skills
to be able to land on dirt strips when necessary.
He also said having "Alaskan Flight time" on your resume is a big plus.
I think he was a former Alaskan pilot.
Just google Blackwater aviation call an ask for numbers. It's a bit
of a controversial contractor these days. But it's well know that
companies like that pay really well. Would probably be challenging
and dangerous, but hey that's just all the more stories you'll have to
tell when yr on old grandpa right? :-) Good luck to you-
P.S. Life is boring without some kind of risk,... throw off the reins and set sail, before you run out of time.
