Vulcan,

I currently fly the C310, C402, C404 and F406 for RVL Group based predominantly at Coventry however other permanent remote bases include Blackpool, Inverness and Manston. We operate numerous contracts including Maritime and HM Coastguard, Environment Agency (Geomatics group), Ordnance Survey, Oil Spill Response to name but a few. We own and operate 3 C310's, 3 C402's, 4 C404's, 3 F406's, 2 DC3's and a BN2 Islander. If you wana fly Cessna 400's and you're up for some challenging and varied single pilot flying then i'd suggest you check it out. We arn't currently recruiting but it can't hurt to send a CV in.


Adam.

I applied two month ago with 406 experience and didn't even get a reply.

C406

Hi,
I have about 2000 hours on the 406. It is a beautiful aircraft to fly and has the power to get you out of trouble.As a TRE/IRE I can see the reason for the high number of hours required. You really do need the experience to fly this aircraft. It is fast and requires the ability to think well ahead so as to avoid problems. You need to fly the aircraft not the aircraft fly you. Once you get familiar with the aircraft you can put it down on a postage stamp.
Keep trying to get to fly the C406 it is well worth it.
If you have time have a look at this link.

SFLY, rvl aren't recruiting, if the CP replied to everyone he'd be a secretary, as he doesn't have one he does what he can. If he recruits he will feret you out. Why don't you have a private chat with wordy hes a good man to talk to and I'm sure if he can get the measure of you he'll back you if your worth it.

You don't need experience to fly an F406, you just need to be good, if you're not that good then experience will help, perhaps!
