CPL looking 4 help getting MEL
 
Does any one have a lead to where a Commercial Pilot could get a job where the company would help with getting a MEL? I'm working as a CFI currently, at a really slow joint. I'd be willing to work as a CFI and on the line, or in the office. I'd totally be interested in building multi-time on empty charter legs too. Thanks in advance! :)

I think you need to decide whether you want to have a part time job or a full time job. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? The market is very hot right now. Go get a job at a busy school, so you can get your hours and earn enough to pay the $3000 for your multi.

Pay for your multi yourself. Are you really going to let $3000 hold you back. Get a night job as a waiter, drive for Uber, work construction. Don't sign 2 years of your life away for $3000.

Thanks for your opinion......do you have any busy flight school suggestions? I'm pretty young(&broke), so I'm not to worried about signing away 2yrs of my life. I do want to progress in an aviation career, but I do need to pay bills now. My current job isn't making payments. I'm totally in for full-time.��

P.s. you are the 4th person this month to ask where I want to be in 5yrs. Honestly I still have NO IDEA.....��

You (really) shouldn't need help locating a busy flight school.
That's like asking us to do the leg work for you ;)
Many, many (did I say many yet?) flightschools will make a deal with you for your MEI.
And I don't think a year of employment is too much to ask for in exchange.

Logging empty charter legs hey?
There's much more to that then meets the eye.

Haha I wish. No, actually I thought someone might know a great place to work. �� Ya know just helping other people out telling them where they had a good experience or somewhere to steer clear of. I don't want to dive head into another unideal position again, cause it's too expensive to move. ��
