Thanks all so far for your input...much appreciated.

I can legally live in the UK, South Africa, Canada, Ireland and Cypress.

Canada and Antarctica (baa haa haa), I'm too old for cold. Done my bit in the High Arctic. Flying next to a beach and ocean was a dream...just should have been more specific about which ocean (who knew the Arctic was an ocean and had beaches). My past broken bones remind me all the time of historically bad and crazy decisions.

Maybe lining in the Jungles of PNG, conservation in Africa or Oil and Gas in the newly found reservoirs just found of the South America coastlines is the ticket! Ive heard compensation working with the Cartels in South America is a rush and profitable...NOT! Again, too old for that type of adventure and adrenaline rush. Can't say the Middle East really entices me. I'm not an alpha-dog persona, but I do stand my ground and known to man my own beat. But, all that subsides as you age.

I'm a mostly Multi-Engine ATPL HEMS type of pilot (139, 412, 212, 76er). Done my fair bit in the 204/205 and 206. Eurocopter has always evaded .me.

Civilian and Military flight Instructor. Done a whole bag of VFR low level and lining jobs. Not much at all in Off-shore. As mentioned, I'm a pretty good jack of many, not a master at all. Suppose I'm still trying to find how I really want to finish my flying career. Maybe the Caribbean is the answer.

It's nice having options, I can make quick decisions in the cockpit, but when my wife is the majority stakeholder in life decisions, well...Im damned if I do and damned if I dont.

Thanks again, rotor side up!
