Near Vertical Incidence Skywave? I don't remember that in Air Ops! There was one crazy question about air conditioning that escaped from another exam...

Apart from the BSP Vacancies thread, of course...
If you're already S92, already TRE, already Long Line, already SAR, already superhuman...

Hail Mary Pass - Where to Look for a Job

Where can a 1200 hour pilot (all turbine) find a job other than the Tuna Fields? No luck with the tour operators in HI and Vegas, and no luck with the Gulf of Mexico operators either. Lots of emails sent and calls made...

Will travel anywhere. About ready to push everything in storage and go to Africa or the Middle East and knock on doors.

Any pilots out there with two pairs of hands for this job?!



Bootcamp Helicopters, LLC
5430 Lynx Lane; Suite 176
Columbia, Maryland 21044-2302
United States

Job Location:
Maryland

Contact: Robert Schapiro
[email protected]
Ph: 301-717-5455
Bootcamp Lights | Innovative Advertising

Bootcamp Helicopters, LLC is looking to hire one to two part-time pilots to fly Sky Sign in the Baltimore/DC area.

Job Description
Pilot will receive flight orders from Director of Operations usually 24 hours in advance of flight. Orders will include the time, location, and a follow-up e-mail with the Sky Sign message file. He/she must prepare to arrive at the airport in Clarksville, MD with enough time to preflight the helicopter and sign, upload message file to the computer, file a DC SFRA flight plan, receive a departure clearance, and (during winter months) pre-heat the helicopter. He/she will need to arrive on location at the specified time. During the flight, he/she will maintain communication with the ground spotter using one radio, while communicating with ATC with the other.

All flights occur during night hours, so pilot will log a significant amount of night flight time. Our normal refueling airport, when in the Baltimore area is 25 NM from the departure airport, so pilot will log cross country time as well. Depending on sunrise/sunset schedule, flights will take place between 05:30 - 07:00 and between 17:00 - 21:00. Weekend flights may go as late at midnight. Pilots will not be expected to fly both shifts in one day, however they may elect to do so.

Occasionally, pilots will be asked to assist in attaching/removing the sign under the supervision of an A&P. This process usually takes about an hour to 90 minutes. When the opportunity arises to re-position the aircraft to nearby cities (e.g. Ocean City, Atlantic City, New York City, Richmond, etc.), pilot will be the first offered the second seat for the ferry flights.

The position pays $50 per revenue flight hour and $30 to assist in attaching/removing the sign.

Qualifications

500 hours total helicopter time
50 hours in the DC SFRA
50 hours in the Robinson R22
Hold an R22 PIC endorsement
Hold a valid second-class medical certificate
Have completed the RHC Safety Course within previous 7 years
Must be able to hover the R22 in place for upwards of 2 hours.
Must be experienced in the DC SFRA and surrounding Class B airspace.
Must be able to handle flying the helicopter while communicating on two radios and occasionally changing messages on the laptop computer (in the passenger seat).
Must know how to operate a Garmin hand-held GPS.
Must be a team-player. No Blue Falcons please.
Pilots who know the general layout of highways in the Maryland/Northern Virginia area are preferred.
Pilots who hold a DC FRZ PIN, or are in the process of obtaining one are preferred.

Sky Sign Description
Sky Sign was invented and patented by Sky Sign Inc. There are photos are videos available at: Bootcamp Lights | Innovative Advertising. The helicopter and sign have a Supplemental Type Certificate and have been inspected and approved by an IA and two FAA airworthiness inspectors. When the sign is attached, the aircraft operates in Restricted Category. We hold an FAA waiver to allow us to fly at 500 ft. while operating under Restricted Category. The sign adds about 105 lbs. to the aircraft and places the CG considerably farther aft. Due to the aft CG, this is a single-pilot operation. Normal cruise speed with the sign attached at full power is 55 to 60 KIAS. The aircraft is very maneuverable with the sign and is very difficult to settle with power.

Contact Information
If you feel you are qualified for the positions, please e-mail resume and/or questions to:
Chief Pilot: Robert Schapiro
E-Mail: [email protected]
Phone: 301-717-5455
(E-Mails Preferred)

I emailed Abu Dhabi, no luck. Tried calling 971-2-5758000 but it just rings endlessly. Do you have a better number?

You could always try Patriot at Coventry Airport (adjacent to Air Atlantique), they have a fair amount of work and you have the experience on type they could use - VFR

OUCH.....
I think you'd already be bending over so not far to go till you get a look like this...

talk about milking the out of someone trying to get somewhere in the beginning building hours...!

And safe as well....
Holding a hover for up to 2 hrs and changing text on the laptop on the pax seat in a 22..... You can just imagine how that rock would drop when the engine went poof and one was typing a new message.....
I think isn't big or scary enough...

What a statement!

Hovering over a built-up area at 500' agl at night with a 12 meter sign under the aircraft, single pilot in an R22, with cg well aft and your head in texting and writing on the laptop on the seat next to you at the same time. Did the FAA not see any problems at all with this when they certified it or am I being over cautious? In addition they are paying peanuts, so are not going to attract the most experienced people around. I hope they have some fairly strict operating procedures. I would not touch this one with a barge pole - which incidentally is probably going to be shoved up the pilot who takes this on.

And only 50 hours needed in a 22.

Horrorbox. Totally agree. What a stupid thing to write! Almost means it will settle but don't worry because I've written it won't!
