Line Pilot at Penobscot Island Air

Penobscot Island Air based in Owls Head, Maine is actively recruiting for Seasonal Line Pilots for their Cessna 206 fleet. Commercial pilot with 500 TT. Details here:
They are hiring now to build up their pilot group over the winter, and be ready for seasonal flying in the spring.
From the job description:
"Penobscot Island Air flies people, freight, mail, and medical transport between Knox County and the islands of Penobscot Bay. Our line pilots fly single-engine Cessna 206s and 207s into short, rugged island strips, several times a day, in real Maine weather. This is high-frequency, hands-on VFR flying with many takeoffs and landings, tight turnarounds, and direct contact with the island communities we serve. If you want to build meaningful PIC time doing flying that actually matters to the people on the other end, this is it."
What they look for in candidates:
"Good judgment, a genuinely conservative approach to weather and loading, physical ability to handle freight, and the temperament to do the same island run twenty times and treat the twentieth passenger as well as the first."
Minimum qualifications:
Commercial Pilot Certificate, Airplane Single-Engine Land
Second-Class (or higher) FAA Medical Certificate
Valid driver's license
500 hours total time
Must meet 14 CFR 135.243 requirements for the operations flown
Legally authorized to work in the U.S.
Preferred qualifications:
Prior Part 135 experience
Cessna 206/207 or comparable high-wing single time
Short-field, unimproved-strip, or backcountry experience
Instrument rating
Comfort with cold-weather and coastal operations
Familiarity with Maine and the Penobscot Bay region
Sounds like a cool job!
