Landcare Aviation is a GREAT place for any pilot coming out of training, or being a CFI for a short while. I worked for them last year, and I traveled from Orlando, Florida to Augusta, Maine, and almost everywhere in-between. You acutally use your instrument rating, and you learn to communicate in class Bravo almost like it was second nature. They usually hire around late August to mid-Sept. for the mid-Oct to end of May season. Great experience, can get up to 500-700 hours in the seven month period, and you learn to manage your own airplane, hotels, hangar situation, etc. My buddy who flew with them the previous season told me that "Flight school gets you your ratings, Landcare is where you learn to fly and become a pilot"---and he was 100% right.
