Why I like this job for Low Time Pilots

Bowman has a mixed fleet. This means opportunities to grow into larger aircraft, including turbine powered single & multi-engine aircraft. Survey pilot work provides pilots with a lot of flight time, the ability to travel, and a significant amount of leadership experience, since flight crews must deliver the service with a lot of autonomy. You'll be on the road, responsible for managing and planning flights, and delivering on time performance.
