THE
COMMUNITY OF FLYING New Chief Pilot We are very excited to introduce our new Chief Pilot to the
membership. Jesse Gamueda comes to
us from Denver, CO where, up until recently, he has been a professional pilot
for several part 135 business jet operators. Jesse has a wide variety of experience from GA, to
corporate, and even several hundred hours of acro! Jesse will be working part-time (20 hours per week) and will
additionally be doing a fair number of phase checks. His main office will be in Palo Alto, though he plans to
spend each Tuesday at San Carlos for the membership there to meet and work with
him. He will generally be working
afternoon hours should you want to stop by and chat or to set up a meeting. As most of you know, I have been the acting Chief Pilot for the
past 12 months while the Chief Pilot search was conducted. I have interacted with many of you on
different levels in that role and have thoroughly enjoyed working with members
on numerous scenarios, ideas, and issues. Now I would request that future discussions and
requests concerning Chief Pilot matters be directed to Jesse. Examples include checkout questions,
exceptions, exemptions, overrides, extended rental agreements, non-AFD airport
permissions, safety, and process discussions. |
