About the Role
We are seeking a contract pilot(s) to fly a Cessna 340A under Part 91 based at Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport (KCXO). This is an as-needed contract position covering owner-directed trips, repositioning, and maintenance flights.
The right pilot will be professional, safety-focused, and comfortable operating a pressurized piston twin in the Gulf Coast environment - summer heat, coastal weather, and single-pilot IFR in busy Houston-area airspace.
We are looking for a long-term working relationship. As flight activity grows, this contract role has the potential to convert to a full-time salaried position.
Responsibilities
  • Operate the Cessna 340A safely and in full compliance with FARs, insurance requirements, and manufacturer limitations
  • Conduct thorough preflight planning: weather, fuel, weight and balance, performance, and alternates
  • Provide professional, discreet service to owners and passengers
  • Coordinate scheduling, FBO services, fuel, catering, and ground transportation as needed
  • Complete post-flight walkarounds and promptly report any discrepancies or squawks
  • Maintain accurate flight logs, Hobbs/Tach records, and trip documentation
  • Coordinate with maintenance on aircraft status, inspections, and AD/service bulletin compliance
  • Fly maintenance, repositioning, and post-maintenance test flights as requested
  • Maintain aircraft cleanliness and readiness between trips

Minimum Qualifications
  • FAA Commercial Pilot Certificate - Airplane Multi-Engine Land
  • Instrument rating, current and proficient for single-pilot IFR
  • Current FAA Second-Class Medical (or better)
  • Current flight review and instrument currency
  • Meets or exceeds insurance underwriting minimums (final requirements set by the carrier - see note below)
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation to KCXO
  • Ability to pass a background check and provide a current pilot resume, certificates, medical, and logbook summary
  • Clean FAA records - no accidents, incidents, violations, or enforcement actions
Experience
  • 1,200 hours total time
  • 200 hours multi-engine
  • 50 hours instrument (actual and simulated)
  • 25 hours in Cessna 340 or similar make and model (or an approved type-specific initial course)

Pilots close to these numbers are encouraged to apply - final requirements will be determined by insurance approval. We will review individual experience for qualification.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Time in type - Cessna 340/340A
  • Twin Cessna experience (300/400 series - 310, 320, 335, 340, 401, 402, 414, 421)
  • Turbocharged and pressurized piston experience
  • Formal type-specific training is a plus
  • ATP certificate
  • CFI/CFII/MEI
  • Familiarity with Houston-area airspace and Gulf Coast weather
  • Garmin GTN / G500-series or comparable avionics proficiency
  • Prior Part 91 owner-flown or corporate flight department experience

Schedule & Commitment
  • As-needed contract basis; trips scheduled in advance where possible with occasional short-notice requests
  • Mix of day trips and multi-day itineraries with overnights
  • Availability for weekend and holiday flying
  • Estimated volume: 20-60 hours a month
