Alaska Part 135
Looking for 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. Anchorage based, out backs would be amazing but some overnights are fine I’ll move to anchorage. Also I’m starting for 80k plus is any of this reasonable I’ve looked and found the schedule, base ANC, but the pay is really light. Thanks

Ask JohnBurke, he's a great person to network with.

2-on-2-off is easy enough to find at an AK 135, but ANC based with mostly day-turns, good luck.
When I worked up there, you had about a 90% chance with 135's to be Bethel based for the 2 on. Anyone who did any flights to ANC were super senior lifers that put in their time already out in the villages. There are a few that might check most of your boxes, such as flying twin Otters for oil companies, but again, I wouldn't expect to land a job like that any time soon without significant AK and/or Bush experience.

Nice well I’m open minded on locations. Most important thing is pay and schedule honestly in that order. So you think 80k is possible first year in bethel? I’m 4K+ TT

Typically lower time pilots started out making 40-50k a year at a few of the 135's I know people at, but second year I was nearly at 80k. Depends on how fast you upgrade on equipment, what routes and flight time you get, and how fast those above you left, among other things. With 4K TT, you may be quicker to upgrade than some, but the desirable bases, shifts, and aircraft usually took some time and seniority.

Without significant AK time and really good connections this is unlikely. Ace, Ryan, Everetts, Empire, Northern Air Cargo, Ravn, Grant, and Guardian have ANC bases. None have 2 on/2 off that I am aware of. You’d probably get started as an FO at all of them.

It's likely you're going to have a tough time finding a left seat gig making 80k without a ton of Alaska experience on the books. Most operators up north value Alaska time over TT. |
International tourism hasn't rebounded yet, so its probably going to be pretty competitive and low pay for 135 jobs in Alaska for the next year or two.
