G'day Nick,
Apologies to MPD for my opening line, it was a little pesimistic, the last thing I want to do is put you off flying mate!! Don't get me wrong, I am the first to admit that I have a great job, people tell me that every day.
I suppose a lot depends on what type of flying you do on a daily basis. I am lucky at 2500hrs to have had the opportunity to do a variety of VFR flying. Bush fires, police work and film work especially are all jobs I thoroughly enjoy as they utilise the aircraft and my skill to the best of their respective abilities. The majority of my flying though consists of 30min scenic flights with passengers who usually don't speak English so I can't even chat to them. I don't think I'm the first to say that it does get a little monotonous sometimes. Not quite 'boring' though!
Good luck with it MPD, you'll love it up here!!!
Now where's my drill...................
Cheers,
Hollywood
