Default working for flying

.. .
I had a job as a computer unix administrator with an electronics company
near the airport. I was able to take flying lessons before or after work as
the work site was about 2 blocks from the FBO...

The company did some reorganizing and budget cuts including eliminating
funding for my position.. I enjoyed flying it was fun nad want o continue
as this may give me another avenue. I also raise poultry and hope to
eventually get big enough to be able to supply supermarkets... and work
for myself... can't get laid off if I work for myself...

-----------------

Is it possible to work at an airport refueling aircraft, or cleaning
planes so I can continue with my flight training. I am near Phoenix or
Tucson Arizona ???

-------------------


Kudos for being willing to work for a dream...

Right off the top of my head, I've seen (young) people working for Angel Air
at the Stellar Airpark (P19) cleaning planes and taxiing them from their
ramp area to the fuel bay and back. I have no idea if they need anyone
right now, or not.

Anone based at CHD who knows if any of the FBOs there use "line people" or
not? I know Tailwind did not when I trained there a couple of years ago.

Good Luck,
