Subject: Application for Pilot Opportunity in Your Flight Department

Dear Recruitment Team,

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my interest in joining your team. With more than 20 years of experience in corporate and business aviation, including extensive operations under Part 91, 135, and 121, I bring both the technical expertise and customer-focused service required to exceed expectations in this sector.

Throughout my career, I have flown for VIPs, high-profile celebrities, and corporate leaders worldwide, operating aircraft such as the Airbus A319/A320/A321, Hawker 700, and PC-12 across North America, Europe, and beyond. I hold both Full FAA and EASA ATPL licenses and have logged more than 5,800 hours of total flight time.

In addition to my flying experience, I have worked for over two decades as a charter broker, which has provided me with a deep understanding of client expectations, operational standards, and the unique demands of private aviation. This combination of cockpit and business expertise enables me to deliver safe, seamless, and highly personalized service.

I am fluent in English, French, Spanish, and German, and my background as a SIM/CRM instructor reflects my commitment to safety and professionalism. I am confident that my Part 135 expertise and corporate aviation experience make me a strong fit for your team, and I would be delighted to discuss how I can contribute to your operation.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
Michael Rostami
