What is a Remote 350 pilot?

Remote 350 Pilots are certified aviators who operate the Beechcraft King Air 350 aircraft remotely for various missions, such as surveillance, transport, or research. They use advanced flight control systems and work from a ground-based cockpit or control station, ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the aircraft. These pilots must have specialized training in both the 350 model and remote piloting systems, as well as relevant certifications and licenses. Their role is crucial in missions where traditional piloted flights may be impractical or unsafe.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote 350 pilot, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote 350 Pilot, you need a commercial or airline transport pilot license, substantial flight hours in King Air 350 aircraft, and strong understanding of aviation regulations. Familiarity with flight planning software, advanced navigation systems, and remote communication tools is typically required. Excellent situational awareness, decision-making, and clear communication are crucial soft skills for this position. These skills ensure operational safety, effective crew coordination, and reliable flight performance in remote or challenging environments.

What are some common challenges faced by Remote 350 pilots, and how can they be addressed?

Remote 350 Pilots often face challenges such as adapting to rapidly changing weather conditions, maintaining situational awareness without direct visual cues, and coordinating effectively with ground teams. To address these issues, it's important to stay current on weather forecasting tools, utilize advanced cockpit technology for navigation and communication, and participate in regular training sessions focused on remote operations. Building strong communication skills with remote dispatch and support teams also helps ensure safe and efficient flight operations.

We are looking for Full-time, Remote Pilot Operator (RPO) candidates to join the SAIC Controller Training Solutions (CTS) team at the Nashville ATCT / TRACON (BNA) in Nashville, TN, supporting air traffic controller training services for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

Job Description:

The RPO plays the role of the pilot and other controllers in the Air Traffic Controller training simulator. The RPO operates a combination of a simulated radar display and voice communication system to simulate the actions and communication of pilots and remote ATC facilities during medium and high-fidelity training exercises. RPOs receive voice commands from students, input proper entries into the automated system to simulate pilot actions, translate displayed information into appropriate ATC terminology, and respond to the student via the VCS utilizing proper phraseology.

The candidate will be required to complete the following certifications:  Classroom (pass test on airspace and procedures) and Lab (perform as a Remote Pilot Operator on all positions).

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is responsible for ensuring that air traffic control specialists provide the flying public with a high level of safety and professionalism. A well-trained Air Traffic Control (ATC) workforce plays an essential role in fulfilling this responsibility. The FAA employs more than 14,000 air traffic controllers. They work in air traffic facilities of varying sizes, safely separating more than 50,000 aircraft in the National Airspace System (NAS) each day.

To provide such air traffic services, the FAA trains new air traffic control specialists and provides recurrent training to current air traffic control specialists. The FAA utilizes Contractor-provided instructional services at FAA ATC facilities throughout the U.S. and its Territories to ensure these training needs are met. The scope of the contractor-provided services includes all training and training program support to successfully train and prepare students to become fully certified air traffic controllers. SAIC must provide training and training related support services as required for all types and levels of ATC facilities.
