And CASS interest seems to indicate a commuter, so commuting to SJU, for less pay, is better than CFI'ing locally?

Aerial survey is also a great way to rack up time quick . . . one can knock off 1000 hours in one season no sweat and that's counting in bad weather spells . . . however the full season doesn't normally start 'til Sep-Oct so he may have to find other ways to log some time 'til then.

Try Aerial Surveying. SkyLens is a great place to work. Really enjoyed my time there. You could build your hours in a year's worth of time. Respectable pay. Plus an Aztec to get into if they need you.
You talk to the boss once a month and just do the job. I really enjoyed it!

BTW, did I mention that seniority is everything?
