Pilot in Command: PC-

Reports to:

Chief Pilot and Director of Operations (as needed)

This is not a checklist role. It’s a left-seat career.

At Vaerus Aviation, we’re looking for a Pilot in Command who values judgment, preparation, and professionalism, and wants an operation that respects all three.

If you’re an experienced PIC who believes the quality of the operation determines the quality of your life, this may be the role you’ve been looking for.

You’ll fly well-maintained business aircraft with realistic planning, clear communication, and a team that understands aviation from the cockpit outward.

You won’t be rushed into poor decisions.

You won’t be second-guessed after good ones.

You won’t be treated like a seat-filler.

You’ll be trusted to command the aircraft and the mission.

Our operation includes a mix of jet and turboprop flying, supporting a variety of business and personal travel missions.

This role is a strong fit for pilots who:

Prepare thoroughly and think ahead

Communicate clearly and calmly

Respect SOPs while exercising sound judgment

Value professionalism over heroics

Care about building a sustainable flying career

If you’re chasing flight hours or a fast upgrade, this likely isn’t the right seat.

If you’re building a career, it might be.

We’ve built Vaerus Aviation intentionally:

Maintenance culture focused on reliability and transparency

Leadership that respects PIC authority

Planning that reduces chaos, not creates it

A culture that supports longevity, not burnout

Our pilots stay because the operation makes sense.

• Hold a Commercial Pilot Certificate with Single-Engine and Instrument Ratings
• Minimum 1,500 hours total flight time
• Turbine Experience Required
• Pilatus PC-12 Experience Preferred
• Possess a Second Class FAA Medical Certificate or higher
• Possess a US Passport and driver’s license
• FCC Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit

Experience in corporate aircraft demonstrates the adaptability, systems knowledge, and operational judgment we value. If you bring most - but not all - of this experience, we’re still open to the conversation.

Confidential by Design

We understand that experienced PICs don’t job hunt loudly. If you’re curious but discreet, every inquiry is handled privately and professionally.

No automated systems.

Just a direct discussion with people who understand the left seat.
