As mentioned above not trying to have a shot at you, just saying that it was vitually impossible to get long line work with that sort of time.
All the guys I flew with during my recent visit over there who were flying longline were in excess of 5000 hrs plus. In fact the forestry companies are setting the minimums, not the operators. One of the 214B operations I spent some time with have to have a co-pilot for safety reasons and all he does is sit there and monitor the dials and provide look out etc (not saying it isnt important, just thatv he doesnt get to fly unless its a ferry flight).
This requirement is a logging company requirement combined with the insurance agency so things are tough in the long line world. However knocking on every door is always a positive outlook.
Quick example I was at Black Tusk in Squamish for two days and they got ten resumes in the mail over those two days, some with a couple of thousand hours. Hope that explains it.
