Chief pilot is Barry McHaffie. They operate 2 Islanders, a Cardinal and a 172. About 4 pilots work there and they do flight training and commercial flights into Milford.

Not sure of their exact entry requirements, but you will need to do your mountain flying training to have a chance, and probably a C Cat.

Unsure about the pay and conditions, but if its anything like any of the other Milford operators your looking at around $120 per flight part time and anywhere between $25000 and $35000 starting salary fulltime.

Thanks for the info E P.

Do you or anyone else out there know if they do any IFR work
or is it mostly VFR scenic.

Would it be worth doing my renewal if its all VFR or does the company require a current rating?

Thanks in advance.

They only do VFR stuff so i wouldnt worry about doing a renewal. Dont think the aircraft are maintained for IFR anyway so you wouldnt have a way with them to keep it current.
