Hi everyone,
I'm a new member and after a good amount of teaching and examining (Part 141 Check Pilot) I'm ready to jump into the right seat of a business jet.

I saw a lot of great jobs in Southern Florida but I'd like to stay in Central Florida to keep doing part time Check Instructor (on my off days) while building my time in corporate/part 135/part 91.

I have 1200+ hours, not much multi but a little jet experience, can you please give me suggestions on the best path to take and also if you know any place hiring with "newer" planes?

I don't want to look snobby but I'd rather not fly anything older than a Lear 31A, Citation CJ3, Beech 400XP, Phenom 100/300.

Money is not that important as it is management, quality of airplanes/maintenance, schedule (I'm willing to have no set schedule and leave on a whim but I'd like not to be overworked or fly unairworthy stuff).
I rejected a couple of offers because they were from shady companies with crappy old planes.

If I needed to relocate to Southern Florida where would you go?

Thank you so much for the help.

P.S.
I've did some research in the forum before and I've found mostly outdated references so I'd like an updated situation (since the market is booming now).
I'll post this in the Corporate/Part 135/Fractional and 91 Sections

Is this a joke?

Ha.

OK. I'll bite. Try Planesense.

Sorry man, those statements are completely at odds. 135 charter work for a low-time pilot will be an absolute grind flying marginal equipment, especially in Florida.

It's nice to see that there are awesome and friendly users in Aviation forums.

It's not a joke but I bet your dad thought the same when he saw you.

The situation is changing rapidly because of the lack of pilots. Look at the regionals going from 24K/Year to 60K/Year but thanks for the polite answer. So pretty much the users of this forums are jerks... good to know.

Planesense doesn't fly jets but PC-12s.

I am sorry but you have posted this nonsense on almost every board on this forum. If you are looking for a refferal or advice on where to start probably not the best idea to come on the fractional/135/91 board and post that u are a flight instructor and you don't want to get into a crappy light jet and have to work for your money lol! I would bet that a majority of these individuals on this board have lived and flown the exact circumstances you say are not acceptable to you. I think calling us all jerks when you don't like our realistic responses reflects just how much you need to go out and learn what it takes to get one of these jobs u don't want! Good luck and I wish you nothing but the best in your future endeavors, I hope you get the right seat of a Gulfstream 5 right out of ur Part 141 check airman position in a 172!

- top notch equipment
- live at home
- hire me with no experience
- great QOL

Did all the work at the 141 center not result in some good networking?
Your chances of getting what your looking for is like hitting a dime from 1000 yards in the dark with a pistol.
Explore options like NetJets, FlexJet, etc.

Ha. Except that he probably now needs 2500 hours with some significant jet time with either NJ or FJ
