Curyfury Posted September 17, 2015 Report Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) Throwing out an idea, just checking on interest. Im a 200+hr cfi in an r22 but i need 15hrs as soon as possible for a job application, so im willing to split the cost with you. This is for time building only, not for primary instruction. Private pilot rating at a minimum. This will have to happen between october 7-11th in fresno, ca. Or, if you are local and can make it a day trip, we can do a full days worth of flying when our schedules allow it. Unfortunately, the heat is still a factor and keeping the helicopters cool has sometimes been an issue. I cant gaurantee the weather and cooling of the helos, so you may show up and we may never fly. If its over 95F, we wont be flying. Lots of options on where we fly as i am comfortable in both LA and san francisco airspace. We can return to fresno every day and you can stay at a hotel or stay at my place. If you want to do a tour of california and stay at hotels, you will be responsible for the costs of hotel for the both of us (sharing a room is fine) and any over night fbo fees. To me, this sounds like a too good to be true deal, so to tilt it towards my favor a little bit, buy me a steak dinner at harris ranch, $50! Lets try to fly 5hrs a day for 3 days. I can do 8hrs/7hrs over 2 days, but not ideal. First come, first served and payment MUST be made in CASH after each days flight.

R22139RJ Posted September 17, 2015 Report Share Posted September 17, 2015 How will you log time, I'm assuming you need this for an SFAR 200 hrs. It's my understanding you're not legal to teach in a Robinson so if the private pilot is flying, you can't log the time. Unless you have 200 and just need some more for a job app. Then good luck to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolftalonID Posted September 17, 2015 Report Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) He said..."I am a 200+ hr CFI.." Probably the later. However he did edit after your comment...maybe he added that detail... Edited September 17, 2015 by WolftalonID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldy Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Sounds like a good deal for the right pilot who needs the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle5 Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 There's a new job ad for a CFI in Fresno. Maybe he didn't make it in time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curyfury Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Sounds like a good deal for the right pilot who needs the time. Thats what i thoght too, but no interest whatsoever. Looks like i will just pay out of pocket and get the time in asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 You'd probably get more interest if it were R44 time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radam Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 so is it your helicopter? or are you looking for someone to split cost of renting one? 200$ for a 22 seems like a pretty good rate, especially considering I can only think of 1 place to rent them where your at and their prices are outrageous... I am curious what the 15 hours would be needed for... unless your at like 285 and need 300 for a cfi job... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldy Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Does it have to be in Fresno?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curyfury Posted September 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Does it have to be in Fresno??Thats a good point. I guess it doesnt have to be. I can consider going to your fbo where you are allowed to rent helos and will be the primary renter and i will just come along for the ride. And if you are asking for your own benefit goldy, this would work out great cause i grew up in the sfv and i can just stay at my parents place.
