Hello
Hi everyone, I’m new to the community. Glider pilot at 16 in Germany, came to the US in 1995 and got my licenses, first airline job in early 2001, a career collision with 9/11 resulted in never upgrading. During the recession of 2008 I started my own business and went to work for FlightSafety International in 2011 as an instructor/examiner for nearly 13 years. In late 2024 I took some time to revive my business. I am now looking to find employment in the cockpit once more but I am finding it hard to even get a phone screening even though I have what should be plenty of flight time and multiple type ratings as well as recency in small aircraft. I’m hoping to find helpful guidance, pointers and advice and will be glad to share from what I know if anyone is interested. A safe, healthy and joyful 2026 to you all!

@Margrit Fahan Einen schönen guten Tag, Margrit, Da hab ich ja eine Gänsehaut bekommen als Ich Dein Deutsch gelesen hab. Was für eine schöne Überraschung. I am instrument current and have flown an average of 4 hrs a week, weather permitting. My daughter just received her Private Pilot Certificate and is now working on her Instrument rating, so I get to be safety pilot as well. I do so very much appreciate your encouragement and advice. It is moving and heartwarming to see people rally around a stranger for support. Thank you! I’d love to hear more about where and when you flew gliders if/when it is possible. We are so fortunate to have had that opportunity. I think it taught me more than anything else the constant reassessment necessary in the cockpit but I also cherish the memories of the long summer days in the fresh air.
