Yeah,
The civil air patrol was what I was refering to but really didn't mean it as a job. I know a lot of gigs you won't get payed for, or at least initially you might not but they can be fun and VERY helpful to a career. I know you can also take an internship at cessna and you will get to ride along as sic on some test flights as they have to fly every citation before it leaves the plant in ICT. I know this because they actually came to our school looking for istructors that were interested. This was also a non paying gig at first but turned into a paying deal if you stayed. However if a CFI or even 135 guy was looking for something interesting there are many routes out there.

All the young guys out there really out to think about getting there feet wet a little bit and having some fun before they lock in their careers. Because remeber that is probably why you started flying in the first place right?
