Alaska is #1 choice and I have USCG Alaska F/W and R/W tours in Kodiak. IP time in Kodiak in F/W. We would love to move up to the Eagle River area. I am heading to NW Aviation for the Career Forum and just hedging my bet that the 3K will not be a show stopper. I have 2400 hrs ME F/W. 1100 ME F/W PIC and another 2500hrs rotor time with 1500 rotor PIC, some of that in Alaska as well.
I have 3-4 internal recs but they are pretty Junior.
I volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, Hunters for the Hungry, Wounded Warriors. I also own an airplane and am a volunteer pilot for Angel Flight - Mid Atlantic Region.
Any feedback from you guys at Alaska is appreciated!
Looks like you're exactly what the recruiters are looking for now. Just really emphasize the volunteer stuff and your desire to live and b based in ANC.
