I’m pretty sure that position keeps coming up but no one seems to be getting them? Contour Aviation? Word has it that they were downsizing?

Im interested in Contour also, just waiting on my multi checkride. But they have been expanding out of PIT with routes up to PVD operated under the "One Jet" name.

I've heard about their downsizing (failed airlines) cough cough. But rumor has it that they are going to aswell as many other carriers lose most of their business when EAS takes a hit. If you get hired try to gain as much experience as possible and make your aviation stock go up for the future.

"Try to"? Seriously?
Cape Air should be the last resort, if all else has failed, twice.

I'm sure you have considered this, but why not work on your CFI and just go hammer out a bunch of hours instructing when you finish your contract? I remember you posted a thread last winter looking for jobs around 500 TT. I followed it closely because I had 400 TT at the time. I'm now up to 1100 hours from instructing. If you are looking for the magic 1500, instructing is a super quick way to get there.

My VFR flights are extremely repetitive and useless, except for the total time.
