apiaguy Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 No. But they are everywhere. Start by what state you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryesis Posted January 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) Preferably northeast, Maybe PA or NJ......anywhere is the US is good though. Mainly anywhere that would potentially hire a pilot under 1000hr Edited January 17, 2015 by cryesis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippiesdrainage Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Are you sure you want to limit yourself to R44 Ag spraying? These are pretty slim requirements. You could have better luck if you're willing to look at companies that do powerline/pipeline patrols or a flight school that does a bit of sightseeing in the R44s. Are you dead-set on only Ag work? For example, I did a quick check for R44 utility companies and found Chesapeake Bay Helicopters http://www.cbhelos.com/careers/ . They're currently hiring.They use R44s but don't do Ag, but they do powerline/pipeline and external load operations and they're located in Virginia.

Rotorhead84 Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) There is never a magic list. There are about 1,300 companies in the United states that do 137 work. 80% are fixed wing operators. Out of the 20% that run helicopters, the majority of them run turbines. The 44 isn't exactly an ideal or safe platform for 137 work. Edited May 2, 2015 by Rotorhead84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
