Hire Ferry Pilots
A ferry pilot moves an aircraft from one place to another: a new purchase home from the seller, an airplane to the paint or avionics shop, a delivery across the country or across an ocean.
On AirplaneGigs you post the trip once, with the aircraft, the route and the dates, and ferry pilots who hold the right ratings and have time in that type can apply.
What You Can Hire Them For
- Delivering a newly bought aircraft
- Repositioning to a maintenance, paint or avionics shop
- Moving an aircraft to a new home base
- International and oceanic deliveries
- Ferry permits and aircraft that need extra care
Helicopters Too
Helicopter ferry flights are posted the same way. Pick the helicopter from the aircraft list (a Robinson R44 or a Bell 407, for example) and only pilots with rotorcraft ratings are matched to it.

Common Questions
- How do I find a ferry pilot for my airplane?
- Post a job with what you need, where and when. Members who fit it can apply, and the ones who match best are told about it. Compare their experience, message them, and book the one you choose. The rate is agreed between you. Ferry pilots near the departure airport, and those willing to travel to it, see the job.
- Can a ferry pilot fly my aircraft internationally?
- Yes. Members say on their profile whether they take international trips and whether they hold a passport. Mention customs, permits or an oceanic leg in your post so the right pilots apply.
- Who is responsible for the flight?
- AirplaneGigs connects people for aviation work and doesn’t operate flights. Whoever hires a pilot keeps operational control of the flight.
