As far as big ones doing such activities, I really don't know. Maybe you could get onto some of the fractional companies webpages and try contacting them to see if they offer anything. Honestly, if you have time this summer, I'd work on building some more dual-given time etc. If you're in the area, and it works out, I could offer you some turbine experience if the timing and conditions work out. I'm out of MIE, and feel free to PM me anytime. You need 10-15 posts though before you can do that on this site
Thanks a lot Ewfflyer, what a great offer! I actually decided to stick around West Lafayette this summer and instruct at Hangar 6. Unfortunately, it looks like I'll only be getting AT 210/211 (simulator) students so unless Lafayette Aviation is hiring, I don't think that I'll be doing much flying.
I'm definitely going to stay in touch, thank you so much for even offering. I actually just finished my last flight in the King Air, so I've been feeling some letdown not being able to mix in some turbine time with the Warrior flying!
