I recently moved here from Texas. I'm a Commercial pilot looking for a something in a multi-engine aircraft, but I'll consider almost anything.

I'm also looking for people to go shooting with. I'm in Queen Creek, but I have a membership at Scottsdale Gun Club so I go up there fairly often.

Thanks guys.

I'm in San Tan.

Might go shoot to BZO rifles Thursday at like 6AM in Florence. Early day, but it's cool outside at that time. You're welcome to come.

Mesa air seems to be perpetually hiring as a feeder to Delta/American

How many hours?  IFR 135 minimums?  CFI?  What do you want to do?  Cargo, airlines, charter, air ambulance, skydiver driver?

If you're looking to go shooting with a few folk, the hometown shoot on OCT 1st and 2nd is a great way to meet and introduce yourself to us.

There is a ton of flight training in AZ, due to the great weather.  If you got your CFI reinstated (or add CFII/MEI?) you could get a CFI job in no time.  Westwind, Transpac, CAE, ATCA (Lufthansa), etc.  The schools are desperate for instructors, paying $5k hiring bonuses, etc.  But, it's flight instructing...

Cargo jobs.  You could get on with Ameriflight in the PA-31 with your times.  I don't know if they would guarantee a PHX base, however.  There's also a 135 cargo outfit out of FFZ that flies twin Cessnas.  Aerolynx I think is the name.  I would think you'd be a pretty strong candidate with 160 multi.

Lots of skydiving activity out here as well.  The big DZ is in Eloy (Skydive Arizona) and they fly mostly multi-engine planes.  That place can be tough to crack without an internal rec.  There are half a dozen other DZs in the state, however.  Mostly 182/206 or Caravan.  Pay is not great at the smaller places.

Corporate.  Lots of that out of SDL.  I've got to think you could get a right-seat job with 1800/160.  

Flying tourists at the Grand Canyon?  Grand Canyon Airlines, Scenic, etc.  Mostly twin otter.  

Pictometry is hiring, but you'll be on the road all the time.

I don't know anything about air ambulance, sorry.

Hope that helps.  Good luck.
