nah, ...actually only knew about the Helicoptor thing from a press release they put out locally, personally I wouldnt trust them, they still have a lot of students that havnt recieved the training they paid for. I happen to know one. But one might say that now that they have an investor they need CFI's to provide the training. Read the press releases here in south florida, and some might say they appear to be turning into another TAB express debacle, but thats just what Im hearing, I only really know about them by passing their campus everytime I go to Banyons. Hanger 63 baby..love that place

UND Aerospace is NOT hiring. We took an extra 30 or so pilots just to try and give them jobs. The problem is, we don't have the students. We've got a bunch way behind due to the weather this winter, and we have a set of students unable to pay due to the financial aid crisis. We do have accelerated students as well, but there's only so many and we have a LOT of experienced CFI's. Our current CFI/CFII graduates have no options for working here right now. When we start getting pilots moving out to other opportunities we'll start hiring again. Think July or August. We might have a few in May, but it would be overstaffing again and mostly internal. Realistically, think Novemeber application, December hiring. Looking about 30 hrs/week with full load right now... if the weather is good.

Nope, UND is not hiring right now. New instructors were hired in January and a few people returned that were furloughed recently. The next hiring workshop is in August.
