Re: Employee or Contractor?
who owns the aircraft? who holds the insurance?
ive worked as a contract pilot for a few operators and the main issue legally is liability. what happens if you f up someones aircraft, what happens if you hurt someone.
my advice, get a good contract written up by a lawyer or become an employee.

Re: Who's getting HIRED and who's getting PFOd?
just curious, at what stage do people usually get the PFO?
is it comon to get PFO'd after youve gone so far as to do the medical or reference checks?
or are most people getting PFO'd after the sim or interview?

Re: Wam Air-Pine Dock.
i saw an ad for the whole operation in a real estate magazine. i cant remember the price.
it is a good time to sell, it would be hard to make money out of pine dock when the new
road goes up the coast in a few years.

Re: Question about the Caravan from a weekend warrior.....
the pilatus and the caravan are both very easy aircraft to fly. although 8 hours a month is not desireable, it can be safe.
the caravan is easier to fly than a 172 but make sure you get proper training.
i amagine your insurance will be fairly steep!
