Anybody out there know of any Air Taxi / Air Ambulance / Corporate companies who would be prepared to employ freelance part-time pilots who have a secure job elsewhere which offers good availability and the guarantee that the company will not be used as a step-up to airline work?
Particularly, is it beyond the realms of realism for anyone to offer the necessary jet/turbo rating in return for some form of bond?
Preferably the London / Home Counties area.
Any advice gratefully received. :)

If you lived a bit more west then I would have talked to you in a more positive manner.
It is possible but very unlikely unless you have lots of serious experience. Still, remain focused, who knows (I know it's a crap advice but true)

If you can't save the engine...save the airframe :D

Are you the same eye that whizzes around the M25 in the morning to aid people in getting to work ? Featured in Flyer( or another mag) a little while back ?
