Whiteshadow Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Anyone ever done SIC for Brim? Particularly the Columbia River Bar Pilot program. Due to the nature of the flying, do they still require a decent amount of flight time for SIC, unlike other SIC jobs? I realize it's a small fleet so openings probably don't come up too often. But if one does open up, I'd like to know what it takes to compete for the spot. Quote
adam32 Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Why would they need a SIC? I don't believe they have any ships that require a SIC? They have MD stuff and I think they recently acquired an Agusta...?? Quote
Lindsey Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Oh man I would love to work for them someday. Quote
Whiteshadow Posted December 2, 2015 Author Posted December 2, 2015 OK, so Lyn straightened me out on the issue. The video I saw led me to believe that there were SIC's on board, I figured maybe because of the complexity of the flying. But it doesn't look like that's the case. So I'll just build up to the "lots more" hours needed and work for them one day as a captain! Quote
kona4breakfast Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 It'll probably take more than just hours. Solid IFR time. Hoist time. I'd imagine there's a pretty solid pipeline of ex-Coasties. 1 Quote
iChris Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) Brim Aviation has been around a while looking to find a niche in the market. They've tried some things here in California; however, they're no worse than any other small company trying to make it in a tight market. Always be aware, look beyond the fluff. They have had a few accidents, including one fatal. NTSB Identification: WPR14LA160 NTSB Identification: CEN13FA075 NTSB Identification: SEA05CA200 Edited December 6, 2015 by iChris Quote
