Update 2

The job search continues. There have been a few leads and I've started thinking outside of the box. I have applied for several overseas jobs flying the Lear 60. A few in Europe, a few in Asia and one in Nigeria. They are all contract gigs, requiring me to be out of the country two or three months at a time. The good thing about these contract gigs overseas is the high pay ( one was paying 8500 euros a month ). There's heavy competition for those jobs as well, so I can only wait around and hope for a call back and continue applying.

Starting next week, I will begin marketing myself as a flight instructor and an independent contract pilot. I have experience operating in Part 91/Part 135/Part 121, so I want to use that experience. To help with that marketing, I have begun www.McBlairAviation.com . Currently there is nothing on the site, but soon there will be.

I have been staying somewhat current by doing some Baron flying for a friend of mine. Great airplane, I highly recommend tyring it out.

Well, that's all the news that isn't from the heartland.
