I was wondering if anyone could shed light on the prospects out there for someone in my position as the market in the UK seems a bit saturated and at the hours level I'm at seems to be out of reach.
And advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Damn with your hours the only job here in the States would most likely be with Old City Helicopters flying R44 tours in Florida, they generally only want 200 total, whereas all the other R44 tour companies want 500.
You could come here and try that until you build up to 1500, then get some turbine time in the Grand Canyon?
,and so on,...?
