Potential new Job with Helocopter Outfit
« on: September 26, 2007, 12:34:20 AM »
Hi Guys!

Been looking for a new job lately (was laid off in March and have been working part time) and something came up that spiked my attention.  A helocopter outfit here in Wasilla is looking for a store manager!  Besides chartering (their speciality is long line external loads but they do just about everything under the sun) they also do component overhaul, painting and sell parts.  They are asking for 5 years management and supervison (I beat that by more then a little bit), strong computer skills especially in Word and Excel (programs I use daily) and excellent communication.  No specifics yet, but I'm writing a cover letter right now and getting ready to email them.  I hit their website and it looks like this could be a seriously fun job--even if I don't get to fly  ;) (Remember I'm only PP SEL) Wish me luck!

Congrats on the chance, hope things work out for the best  |:)\
1 question though (not meant as a joke but feel free to smile if you wish): Who said the Dark Side is rotorcraft and not fixed wings??

Tell me about it---My life will be over when "Papa Phil" finds this site.   ::eek::  ::unbelieveable:: although he does have a good sense of humor.

Hey, you seem to be flush with pilots right now---you wanna send one up my way???

Actually I just finished the Pokie contract today, and may be bringing "LaFawnduh" down to hang with "Panaca Jane" this weekend....
Life may not be the party we hoped for---but while we're here--we might as well dance..........
