Silver rock Aviation-Thompson/Okanagan
Does any one have information about this company? Google does not bring up much of anything.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Silver rock Aviation-Thompson/Okanagan
I was wondering that myself. Other than the long time Kelowna crowd and that . guy at Kamloops, aviation is pretty dead there as far as entrepreneurship goes.WeatherMaster wrote:Does any one have information about this company? Google does not bring up much of anything.

It's one thing to give your resume out to Westjet, or KFC, or NTAir, etc, but to send it to a gmail address out in the ozone. Looks like someone looking for a 704 CP, but I'd say you'd be too stupid for that if you just gave your details out to anybody with a gmail address.

that's the thing, if it is from silver rock... why wouldn't they use their own company email?.. or say Vernon instead of Thompson.. seems fishy

The company is likely jumping through the ever increasing TC certification hoops. TC forgets that actually helping prospective operators through the process is in the public interest.
I would consider it job security if I were a TC inspector considering we all justify their existence.

Re: Silver rock Aviation-Thompson/Okanagan
If you are jumping through the TC hoops, you at least have an incorporated company to be the applicant, and a board of directors and a president to sign the application, and a proper email address, and maintenance arrangements lined up, and have filled in the personnel forms.SRV wrote:The company is likely jumping through the ever increasing TC certification hoops.

Not necessarily. A shelf company, a mom and pop team and a shoestring budget to get you to the approval date. You are probably still working full time with a dream and running on sweat equity.
Not every new company has a flashy webpage and dedicated company email...this is the real world!

Mom and Pop? Shoestring budget? Beech 1900?
Sorry, but no. There's a wiff off that job posting. If it wasn't, the guy would be on here defending these comments by now. On the other hand, I suppose he or she would either way.

Re: Silver rock Aviation-Thompson/Okanagan
I'm working for a plaintiff in a case out East. It has to do with a version of a Mom and Pop company, shoestring budget, guy trying to cobble something together to build time for the airlines. It features a very well known aviator in that part of the woods named as Chief Pilot. Trouble is, he never knew he was Chief Pilot for 30 years, until this lawyer contacted him. The outfit ran for about two years. I wonder how TC did an inspection, without ever meeting the Chief Pilot.
I don't think there were any exams or interviews for CP back then.

No, I don't know it all. I do know, and I expect most people who work with TC know, that if you really have a Beech 1900, you have a name it would be registered under and that name has a real email address and probably a website. I also know that identity theft is a real risk nowadays, and often a resume contains quite a bit of info that can be helpful in any number of shady endevours.
It's not obvious that you know nothing. It's not likely you actually believe all that stuff about the Mom, Pop, shoestring thing.

Re: Silver rock Aviation-Thompson/Okanagan
Actually all you need is a lease agreement subject to a start date and that aircraft may be operating under another AOC. There are no rules for having a company email if you only plan on hiring one pilot and you say "probably a website"? What weight does that carry. Why does one need a website if you already have a booking agent and the work is a niche market? The possibilities are endless when you think things through.cncpc wrote:SRV wrote:cncpc wrote:I'm working for a plaintiff in a case out East.

This must be a conspiracy to dumbfound green pilots and confuse TC.
