How are you guys listing your cross country time in AirlineApps? It doesn't specify whether they want greater than 50nm, or ALL cross country time regardless of distance. I actually have it split in my logbook. So just curious what you guys have been using?

Then ya gotta get creative. Living in Ohio most folks don't have access to live Maine lobster, so i just went around to family, freinds, and business associates, and assembled a nice large order of live lobster. Factored in the cost of the aircraft, and it still cost them less per pound then at the local seafood shops. Plus it got me close to 9 hours of twin time each time!! Plus it was perfectly legal under part 91 flying. 225 Live lobsters in a Seneca, haha, lot's of fun!!!

Hope that gets your brain juices flowing!! Now go get creative!!

If you have time, you could look into CAE's Right Seat Program. Sit in the right seat of a King Air sim during a check ride as the NFP. That could give you a chance at a job somewhere in the Metroplex flying KA's.

Just a thought.

Kindly explain how going around and advertising - on a one to one in person basis - a cargo service; and then renting an airplane and flying said cargo is within the FAR's without an air carrier certificate of some type.... have you read 119 & 135? Yes, a commerical pilot may fly those flights, but to hold out the service (commonly called advertising - which is what you did when you went soliciting) drops it squarely into a 135 operation, which trips a whole new set of rules and requirements.
