gsxrpilot Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I don't think there can be any question that Texas is the cheapest place to live, work, own and fly an airplane. We have the cheapest housing, lowest taxes, cheapest 100LL ($4.39 at KRFI today), and plenty of jobs. Now if you come to Austin, forget everything I said about cheap housing. But the rest is all true. There is an empty hanger next to mine at 84R just East of Austin that can be all yours for $225/month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryoder Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I'm a dev manager doing web and mobile development. I bet the fact that they are looking for pilots to work on their software means that they will pay below market. This is what the game companies do. They rely on kids with their enthusiasm for gaming to work for half of what they are worth. I'd love to work on aviation related projects but I would most likely have to take a pay cut that would preclude me from flying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Ryoder, There is a chain of different aviation related jobs in this thread. The most recent is for a professor for an aviation school or something like that... Whenever I get a job posting, I send a copy here in case somebody can make an opportunity out if it...

Many people ask me why I do not get a job in aviation... I always tell them that this would mean taking a cut... Owning and flying an aircraft is expensive...

carusoam Posted April 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2022 Interesting aviation jobs are still opening up… Covid times has increased the desire to fly in private jets… FlexJet is picking up new planes and hiring 4:1 pilots…. https://www.flexjet.com/careers/pilots/ Best regards, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
