Default 1000TT suggestions?

Aerial survey contract is coming to an end shortly. For someone that has 1000TT and 35 Multi, what are some places that could build 500 more hours without requiring a year long contract. Will also need to build 60 more hours of night.

Not looking to instruct. Thanks for any tips!

Without requiring a year long COMMITMENT.......
What impression are you trying to give a future employer?
What's wrong with working for somebody for a year?
Somebody who's nice enough to give you a chance and hack up the dollars for your training?
PFT, the you can walk anytime you like.
Anything else....is called a job.

I'd suggest Plane Sense and get some real world IFR and XC time.

There was a company looking for aerial photography for summer. Not sure if he filled it yet?

I'd suggest something more formal with CRM and multi crew rather then the dirty t shirt and sandals single pilot stuff.
No offense but if you're planning on the airlines or the upper echelon 135's you need some more skills then just hours.

What's your end goal here?
Regionals?

Agree to above post
Go get some CRM, IFR proficient, etc etc
Will help you in the long run

If you want survey
Try quantum, dynamic, keystone, aeroptic

Banner toeing is also a option for summer work
