chopper pilots on private gin palaces
Anybody have any advice of who to contact regarding flight crew positions on yachts. You know, the ones that we see sitting alongside at Monaco watching the F1?
AYAK?
If not you need to talk to a Kleagle.
Then when you reach the third degree of the Craft, you need to show me the token

Many of these positions are done under contract via the major corporate providers and it is unusual for the jobs to be advertised separately. Obviously, pilots on strength have to be forced to go to live on a luxury yacht in exotic places for the summer. But not much...
As a newbie to the industry (not saying you are, obviously I've no idea), you will have two hopes and one of them is Bob Hope.

I personally have not done this type of work, but in a previous job came across guys who did and it's not all it's cracked up to be, very little flying, (one guy said he'd managed 14hrs in a year!
and you'll normally be asked to do some other role on the boat, but that I guess depends on the operator.
Luvair(I think thats how you spell it) do this sort of thing but you'll need a shed load of hours.
Good Luck with the tan!
