GSPilot Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 I've met a couple of fellows from the military transitioning to civilian flying at my flight school. I would say your best friends are going to be your colleagues in the military who have already moved on to civilian flying. It seems like the EMS world likes military pilots because you are procedurally correct with actual instrument time and NVG. Start networking with your friends and also get more flight time if you are able. 1500 is just starting out in the civilian world unfortunately. Other jobs that fit your experience would be oil and gas which seem to be trending up now. They were laying off the last couple years but I've seen some are hiring again for light turbine jobs.
