Congrats!  :aok

Way to go flight! I am in the same boat...I get left-seat time in a Baron now and then but can't log PIC. Think I will just get the checkride done in the Spring time probably.

Thanks all!

Well I have two possible jobs lined up in the future to apply for. One being as soon as I get my commercial license flying right seat in a conquest II which is based on field. That could be as soon as December.

The other may come next year, flying something like a caravan or something along those lines, as a freighter, but that depends on how quickly that business takes off. The later job would be part 91, which would be really nice to get.

Plus there are some sky diving places around here that I could fly for, but I don't think any of them are for pay.

If you can get a part 91 job I would go for it...less hoops to jump through than a 135 charter job (which I assume the C441 is for).

Congrats!

I remember getting my multi, it was exciting and I was pretty darn happy.

Now you can burn fuel at twice the rate!    :D

Awesome job. I've been teaching in Kansas City the past 3 days at the CPPP. Heading home now to NY.

Ya, I really want to find a part 91 job. It will be a while before I reach 500hrs just to reach VFR PIC mins and even longer for 1200hrs IFR PIC mins. The Conquest II is indeed on a 135 operation.

Wolf, why isn't that individual wearing pants?

Not that there's anything wrong with that...
