Don't know about the Air Force but in the Navy you were always instructing.

My last tour in the USAF was a special ops unit with just 1 custom equipped C-130. We only had 5 line pilots plus Ops Officer and Squadron CO who both few part time. All the line pilots were at least PIC qualified, and after I upgraded to IP three of the five of us were IP qualified. Got very little proficiency flying since they'd shoot us if we damaged the one-of-a-kind mission plane doing that.

Now during my 2 years at Mesa flying the CRJ-200 I did feel like a CFI when flying with the Flight Academy graduates. 300-500 hour SIC's.
Great pilots to take a Sim checkride with but a bit clueless about real world flying.

I tried calling the Talent Department back but got voicemail so I responded to their email asking a few questions. Waiting to hear back from them. I'm retired USAirways/AA and drawing a pension from the PBGC so I need to make sure that's not a problem, and also I'm technically still employed by NetJets for another 22 months and getting Loss of Medical pay and full benefits. So if those 2 things are OK I'll go for the interview if offered. Worst case I get to play with a Sim for a few minutes :D

Well they want me out there this Tuesday for an interview so I signed up for it. I opted to fly up Monday night so I'm not a sleep deprived zombie for the interview (I rarely wake up before 9am since I went out on medical). Doing some research online so I can put together a briefing on non-precision approaches and VDP's. I'm still skeptical they'll hire someone with no CFI/IP time but I'll give it my best shot.

Good luck...

Sincerely.

When I was doing the Sim Thing we were required to hold a valid and current First Class medical cert.

Things change, ymmv, etc.

Thanks. I made it clear on my resume and in my emails the past 2 days that I don't have a medical. If they require one it's going to be a very short interview LOL.

Well that's encouraging...
We were checking also, and that may be the critical difference.

Good Luck

Also hiring....
 

SWA is also hiring instructors in DAL.

I was a SimP at AA for a year on the B737. I was bored, but I can't say I wasn't warned. I left AA last year for SWA. No regrets. Instant pay raise over AA 2nd year. Six figures now, just barely. More stuff to do than RTSs and Sim 1-5. Same union.

AA was a decent job, I was well treated, but fell short in many other ways.

Thanks. AA is pretty much the only game in town (CLT) for SimP. Not going to move or commute, been in the same house for 28 years now.

I think there's some Turboprop Sims out in Concord but that's nearly an hour's drive away (2X during rush hour) vs. 15-20 minutes for the AA Training Center in CLT. I'm just 9.6 miles from it.

I like the idea of just showing up and doing only the Sim stuff. Not interested in teaching ground school. I'm already going to get docked quite a bit of my Loss of Medical paycheck with what AA pays, anything over about 40K/yr I lose roughly half of that from my benefit. So I'm not doing it for the pay, more for something to do where I can use my experience and most importantly something I can enjoy doing.

I did contract sim instruction on the side in PHX and loved it until we got boned by the FLT Ops department (long story not worth getting into). Does anyone do contract instruction in the CLT sims? It’s usually done from 10p-2am which sucks but the students are mostly highly motivated and fun to work with. Either way, best of luck to you.

Contract work in CLT is pretty rare and use of contract instructors just doesn't happen as far as I know.
