I have spent most of my life working in construction and have been a self-employed handyman for almost a decade now, but it’s time for a change! Recently completed my commercial pilot training in Mesa, Arizona at Falcon Field, with instrument, spin training, and a tailwheel endorsement. I am also interested in other endorsements as well, including complex, high-performance, and float planes. I would love to fly for a job and would definitely consider relocation to this end.
