Question reguarding hours
 
What places (if any) would hire a guy with 360tt and 60 ME? Thanks guys, and yes, this is me.

Probably any flight school if you have your CFI. But since you posted in the 135 section are you looking for any job (meaning regional) or part 135 specifically??

Not any 135 ops' I can be sure about that. There might be someone looking for an SIC in single-pilot aircraft to satisfy an insurance requirement, but that'd be it. I'd say keep building time and contacts, but if you got a CFI, USE IT!!!!

well, the problem is there is no where i can get my CFI without quitting my job and the 6K for everything is a bit pricey.

any job, not just 135

it would probably be better to post your question in the regional forum? i believe some are hiring with low times but not sure which ones. you need 1200TT to get on with a 135 company as PIC. Some 135 companies do hire SIC's but not very often.

Well you might consider banner tow if you're in a coastal/scenic area where there some ops if the regionals aren't an option. Honestly you have a shot with your times of getting the job I'd say with them.

Comuter/Regionals are hiring at or around those hours.
I belive most 135 cargo outfits hire SIC time builders these days.

AirNet
Central air

are a couple that I can think of right now.

Other than that I imagine that your other options would be 135 VFR tour operators(grand canyon), banner towers, and Parachute jumpers. As you can imagine these gigs are seasonal and regional, I guess it all depends on where you live or how flexible you are to go where you can get a job.

GL,

I know what 135 PIC mins are, I should have specified that in the 135 world I was looking for SIC positions. I am in south central Michigan, so not much banner towing or anything.

Well in that area, you're pretty much going for a local operator. Superior out of LAN, Central Air out of GRR. Pontiac has a few operators also. I don't know if any of those use SIC's though. The op's out of pontiac do, as they fly some Falcons, lears, and a few other random planes. I know a guy that works for IFL at pontiac, and he's going to be leaving. He started there after he finished up at ATP.
