Re: Job listing for “awesome private pilot”
I suspect the poster means it is his "private" or personal pilot, not the license its self. Same term as "private jet" in the US, that is often flown by ATPL licensed pilots for hire.
The ad poster clearly has no idea what they're getting into.

I looked up their website and what they're doing (basically hooking people up with tour guides in touristy places) is a neat enough idea, and I think they innocently don't know how the legalities of pilots and planes for hire.

I saw that, and immediately looked up Wandure.
They're a 3rd party travel sharing company, like uber, but focused more on sharing travel and expenses.
Private pilot and access to a plane? Sounds soooper legit, especially in the eyes of TC I'm sure....

Re: Job listing for “awesome private pilot”
Guess someone informed them that they couldn’t use a private pilot

Re: Job listing for “awesome private pilot”
I thought everyone who didn't fly for the airlines was a private pilot?
