Question Operators on Horn Island....

Hey guys/ girls,

Does anyone know of any operators on Horn Island that would take someone with approx. 300 hours/ CPL/ Multi Endo (Travelair/ Baron)?
Mrs. Gearup might be able to get a Government posting there for a year, so might be a good chance for me to score my first flying job.

Cheers,
Gearup.

Horn Operators

I would say your best chance would be with Cape Air Transport, then Barrier and then West Wing in that order. Not sure what CAT's minimums are these days but they have taken on low timers in the past. You could also try Pearl Island Seafoods, they have a 210 and take on low time guys although the work is seasonal and I'm pretty sure they have someone now. Always worth a call though.

Cheers

The Pearl Island 210 would be the most likely, then after some time you might get a look in with another operator.

In days gone by another way to make your presence felt with the operators was to become a window licker with surveillance on the bongos. Although I believe they have all been wiped out of Horn with the douche operating now.
