I didn't get a CFI or an instrument rating until I'd been flying commercially for five years. In fact, I got the instrument rating in order to get my instructor certificate.

Capital City Skydiving in Fowlerville, MI, is looking for a jump pilot right now; 400 hours is what they're saying. They fly 30-50 flights a week. Probably couldn't survive on that, but depending on your circumstances, maybe you could. Might be worth checking into.

Banner towing might be your thing; lots of flying and experience, initially. Paramount says they're hiring presently.

Seaport airlines ad in trade a plane says they're hiring and give preference to those with more than 500 hours, so apparently use those with less.

Positions are out there, and yes, you can find a place to work, if you want, without a CFI.
