Senior First Class Pilot information

What is the difference between Senior First Class Pilot vs Commercial Pilot?

AspectSenior First Class PilotCommercial Pilot
CertificationsCommercial Pilot License (CPL), Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate, seniority experienceCommercial Pilot License (CPL), may include additional ratings (multi-engine, instrument)
Work EnvironmentAirlines, corporate aviation, passenger transportCharter flights, cargo, aerial work, passenger transport
Employer & Industry UsageMajor airlines, private operatorsAirlines, charter companies, cargo carriers

The Senior First Class Pilot typically holds advanced certifications like the ATP and has extensive experience, often working for major airlines. A Commercial Pilot is qualified to operate various aircraft for commercial purposes but may not have the same seniority or advanced certifications. Both roles involve flying aircraft in similar environments, but the Senior First Class Pilot usually indicates a higher level of experience and responsibility within the industry.

VFR Helicopter Pilot – Air Medical Transport

Location: Sierra Vista, AZ
Job Type: Full-Time
Schedule: 7-on / 7-off rotation
Sign-On Bonus: Up to $50,000
Relocation Assistance: Available

About the Opportunity

Total Aviation Staffing is hiring a VFR Helicopter Pilot for a leading air medical transport provider in Sierra Vista, Arizona.

This is a high-impact flying role for an experienced helicopter pilot who wants more than a standard cockpit job. You’ll support critical air medical missions, operate in a safety-first environment, and work alongside medical and aviation professionals who depend on precision, calm decision-making, and strong communication.

If you have strong VFR/NVG experience, meet CAMTS flight-hour requirements, and want to use your aviation skills in a mission-driven environment, this is a strong opportunity to step into a meaningful, respected pilot role.

What You’ll Be Flying

This position supports AS350 VFR/NVG operations in a 24-hour air medical environment. An instrument rating is required, and pilots should be comfortable with both day and night operations.

Why This Role Stands Out

This role offers the chance to fly life-saving missions while joining an organization known for its commitment to aviation safety, operational excellence, and community service.

You can expect:

  • Sign-on bonus up to $50,000
  • 7-on / 7-off schedule
  • Relocation package available
  • Competitive pay and benefits
  • Shift bonuses and incentives
  • Annual safety bonus
  • Annual employee bonus
  • Mission-driven work with a respected air medical operation
  • Opportunity to support community outreach programs
Key Responsibilities

As a VFR Helicopter Pilot, you will:

  • Perform line pilot duties in accordance with the General Operations Manual.
  • Operate aircraft safely and efficiently in support of air medical missions.
  • Support company safety programs, safety management systems, and operational standards.
  • Work closely with medical crews, communications teams, maintenance personnel, and base leadership.
  • Provide safe, courteous, and reliable service to internal and external customers.
  • Participate in community outreach programs as needed.
  • Assist with loading and unloading patients and equipment when required.
  • Maintain compliance with all company, FAA, CAMTS, and customer requirements.
Required Qualifications

The successful candidate will have:

  • Commercial Helicopter Rating
  • Instrument Helicopter Rating
  • First Class Medical Certificate
  • Minimum 2,000 total flight hours
  • Minimum 1,500 helicopter hours
  • Minimum 1,000 PIC helicopter hours
  • Minimum 500 turbine helicopter hours
  • Minimum 100 hours unaided night operations
    or
    50 hours unaided night and 100 hours NVG
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Strong internal and external customer service skills
  • Ability to pass customer and management interview process
  • Ability to pass pre-placement physical exam, drug screening, and background check
  • Ability to meet and maintain the company’s flight personnel weight restriction policy of 235 lbs. or less
Physical Requirements

This role requires the ability to assist with patient and equipment loading and unloading. Candidates must be able to pass a functional capacity exam, including a strength and flexibility assessment, with the ability to lift up to 100 lbs.

Schedule and Location Requirements
  • Schedule: 7 days on / 7 days off
  • Location: Sierra Vista, AZ
  • Candidates must live within a 1-hour commute of the assigned base.
  • Schedule changes may be required based on base needs.
Additional Details

If an aircraft transition is required, a minimum one-year service requirement may apply. If relocation assistance is used, a minimum two-year service requirement may apply.
