How to find a F/E on B 747-200 Freighter for a ferry flight

I am a B747-200 captain with the "easy" job of organizing a flight test and then ferry flight on a November-registered B 747-200. I have an F/O available but I don't know how to find a F/E with experience in these things and a valid FAA B 747 rating. Could anyone give an idea on how to find one.
Thanks !

I would love to help but I,m non current and no medical. Just keep advertizing on this site and I'm sure you will find a current FE classic guy. There's several of them out there. Almost 150 at Kalitta.

Hi JM. I posted this on the Kalitta crew site (members only-sorry).
Good luck.

Thanks for your help. I might have someone allready but you know how these delivery flights go....delays...etc. So as most of the guys who freelance still have some obligations the Kalitta guys might be of great help in case.
Take care

Thanks, we should have someone available if the flight is not delayed by the usual maintenance, permits, financial mess involved in A/C deliveries. I'll let you guys know if it's extending in time or if our guy fails.

Click on the "advertise" link at the top of the page.

A good way to find your FE and support PPrune at the same time.
