FAA Flight Test Pilot in Atlantic City
Does anyone have any information on this job that posted a while back? I applied and painted a picture based on the job description but looking for more details... QOL, mission, aircraft they fly, engineering background required, travel requirements, duties besides flying?

There's a plethora of info on APC regarding this job (the search function should turn over a few stones for you). Also, check USMCFLYR's posts. He has provided info regarding this job recently. From what I understand, it's a decent job as long as you don't mind be away from home.
There's a little info here, too:
Flight Inspection Operations Group

Cleco - if I run across them here in the near future I'll ask them about the expected qualifications for such a job. I know that one friend of mine applied for such a position but didn't seem to get very far without some background in the test world.

Thanks RB for the humor...and USMCFLYR for the info...I was indeed asking about Flight Test, not flight check. I appreciate any info you have to pass along USMCFLYR if you run across any of these folks. Makes sense the type of testing you refer to, I have a feeling there is a much wider scope...just looking for details if anyone cares to share.
