Very excited to be sharing with you all the story of how I ended up in the cockpit of the G-IV! Did I make a mistake spending everything I had on a type rating? In most cases this is frowned upon but I caught a few lucky breaks and it propelled me to the next step in my aviation career. If you’re hoping to become a contract pilot, I highly recommend getting a full time job and experience in the type first. Unless you have something lined up prior, paying for a type and trying to find work with zero time in type will be next to impossible. We talk about all this and more while Brad and I fly the G-IV from Henderson, NV to San Jose, CA! I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do.
