Airjobsdaily isn't bad. I've carried subscriptions in years past. I don't presently have one. It's not a bad service for government jobs, either, though those can also be found free of charge at usajobs.gov.
I was with willflyforfood from the start, when it was free. I don't presently subscribe.
Climbto350 was the same. When I cancelled, they kept trying to bill my card. I had to threaten legal action to stop the practice.
Climbto350 recycles jobs that they know have been filled. A few years ago an operator for whom I was doing some work used Climbto350 to advertise a 135 position. The response was overwhelming, given the economic conditions at the time, and the job was filled immediately. The operator contacted Climbto350 to have the ad taken down. It continued to resurface again and again, inviting a mountain of resumes and an unending stream of desperate individuals by the hangar, looking for work. Repeated calls to 350 didn't fix it, and when discussing it with them on the phone they asserted that it was their company and they'd advertise the jobs as they saw fit. All good and well, except for jobs that don't exist...and they know it.
Avjobs is the worst I've encountered, and by far the most unscrupulous with respect to billing and customer service.

I use pilothiring.com.
It's a great site I think. Whenever I see an online posting im interested in I try to cross reference it with my own research and for the most part these jobs are in fact legit. Also I like the search filter.
