Let’s talk “Home-Basing” for 135 operations (for those who are wondering how this works). Short explanation = the option of living almost anywhere you choose while being provided transportation by the operator to the aircraft's location on the first day of your work rotation, and back home on the last day. Schedules are typically 7/7, 8/6, 12/10, 15/13 (ex. 7 days on rotation; 7 days home; 8 days on / 6 days home, etc.). Some operators have general restrictions on where their home-based pilots can reside. For instance, some require that you live within one hour of a major airport; some require that you live within one hour of one of their strategically placed hubs in the U.S.; some require that you live in certain states or time zones based on where they typically operate. (Note: most home-based 135 operators based in the lower 48, hire pilots in the lower 48 states.) I’ve met quite a few low-time pilots who want to continue living where they live and find a flying job that is NOT flight instruction. 🤔 I don’t want to bust any bubbles, but your chances of finding these home-basing opportunities under 1200 TT are probably slim to none. The low-time flying jobs available under 1000 – 1200 TT are most likely going to require you to move somewhere unless you are fortunate to live where they are based. If you don’t want to move and you do not live in an area where there are many aviation-related companies, your job search is going to be a bit tougher. Not impossible, but tougher… My best suggestion for low-time pilots… be open to moving for a year or so. If you find a position with heavy flying; move to that location, rack up hours and then apply for a home-based position where you can move back closer to your home or wherever your heart desires (within approximately one hour of a major airport 😎). If there are any aviation recruiters out there who are hiring low-time pilots into home-based opportunities, please comment! (My comments only apply to 135 operators; I am not aware of scheduling or residence requirements for 121 operations.)

For those interested in an Aviation Maintenance Career in the Middle Georgia area.

Sheryl’s article points out a need to attract, develop, and retain pilots for corporate flight departments and a concern that Low Time Pilots will be snatched up by airlines when the backlog of plane deliveries finally resumes. I would also be concerned that hiring retired airline captains is a short-term solution as they eventually age out altogether from aviation careers. For those who have corporate flight departments, what is your hiring strategy? Have you considered revamping your strategy to target Low Time Pilots and growing them to meet your future needs? What would you suggest to career transition pilots seeking corporate aviation roles that expect to reach the coveted 1500 hour mark in the coming 2-3 months? Is there a place for direct entry to corporate aviation or is the only realistic opportunity the airlines as a means of obtaining the required hours to meet corporate aviation needs?
