What are Remote Corporate Pilots?

Remote Corporate Pilots are licensed aviators who operate aircraft for businesses or organizations, often flying company executives, clients, or employees to various destinations. Unlike airline pilots, corporate pilots typically fly smaller, private jets or turboprops, and their schedules can be more flexible and varied. 'Remote' in this context usually means that the pilot can be based away from the company's headquarters or main office, and may be required to travel to where the aircraft is located or operate from different locations. Their responsibilities include flight planning, ensuring passenger safety, maintaining regulatory compliance, and sometimes managing the aircraft's maintenance and scheduling.

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

To thrive as a Remote Corporate Pilot, you need an FAA commercial pilot license with multi-engine and instrument ratings, strong flight experience, and knowledge of corporate flight operations. Familiarity with advanced avionics systems, flight planning software, and regulatory compliance tools is typically required. Excellent decision-making, communication, and situational awareness are standout soft skills for this role. These qualifications ensure safe, efficient, and professional transportation for corporate clients while meeting strict operational and safety standards.

What is the difference between Remote Corporate Pilot vs Corporate Flight Attendant?

AspectRemote Corporate PilotCorporate Flight Attendant
CertificationsCommercial Pilot License (CPL), Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) preferredFlight Attendant Certification, CPR/First Aid
Work EnvironmentPrivate jets, corporate aircraft, often remote or on-demandLuxury aircraft cabins, onboard service environment
Employer & IndustryPrivate jet companies, corporate clients, charter servicesPrivate jet operators, corporate travel services

Remote Corporate Pilots operate private and corporate aircraft, focusing on flying duties, often in remote locations. Corporate Flight Attendants provide onboard service, ensuring passenger comfort. While both roles work within the private aviation industry, pilots focus on flying, and flight attendants on passenger experience. They may collaborate on the same flights but require different certifications and skills.

How does a Remote Corporate Pilot typically collaborate with company executives and other team members to ensure successful flight operations?

As a Remote Corporate Pilot, you frequently coordinate with company executives, executive assistants, and flight operations teams to plan and execute trips efficiently. Communication is key, as you must discuss itineraries, passenger needs, and any last-minute changes to ensure smooth travel experiences. You’ll also work closely with maintenance crews to verify aircraft readiness and with dispatchers for routing and weather updates. Building strong relationships with all involved parties helps ensure safety, punctuality, and a positive travel experience for corporate passengers.

Job Description
  • PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a UAS, UAV, RPV, or DRONE pilot position.

We are looking for Full-time, Remote Pilot Operator (RPO) candidates to join the SAIC Controller Training Solutions (CTS) team at the Minneapolis ARTCC (ZMP) in Farmington, MN, 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.

Desired Skills and Experience:
  • Experience working in a multidisciplinary team (Multimedia Developers, Quality Assurance, Instructions System Designers, Subject Matter Experts, Instructors)
  • Experience and certification in ATC Tower, TRACON or En Route simulation lab is strongly desired, but not required
  • Effective oral and written communications skills
  • Working knowledge of the FAAO JO 7110.65 is strongly desired, but not required
