I think the name is Northern States, they do aerial survey and are hiring. 100 percent travel so decent xc time and it would be a paycheck and time builder. Won't help your multi skills its C172 but its work in the mean time and some aerial survey experience think they get about 500-600 in a season from what I hear. You get a lot of aerial survey time which can be boring at times.
I tried to pm you

I would consider getting my MEI, but I ran out of money for training. But I don't really want to go back to flight instruction. I had a bad experience with too many students not studying. Otherwise, I know that Embry Riddle will pay for there instructors to get a MEI if they sign a 2 year contract.

I recently worked for this company doing T-6A training for the Iraq military. If you're not an Ex-military I don't think they'll take you, but it never hurts to try. The T-6A side of the house was a little different and you had to be a former T-6A military IP, because we taught some specific military type flying (ex. formation, aerobatics) All the instructors I worked with had well over 3000 hours and at 1500 hours of IP time, but If you're interested I'll answer any question you have. I'm not going to post the salary, but I will tell you calling it a "monster salary" is an understatement.

I was in the army for while, but I didn't fly. Mostly I just sat behind a desk.
