MPT,
My advice, for what it's worth, is keep doing what you are doing. The old "right place at the right time" adage is what is going to get you your next job. As advised previously, just keep in people's minds without hassling them too much and when something does come up, your name will be the one they think of first.
By the way, according to Australian Aviation magazine, "At present there is an overall shortage of helicopter pilots in Australia". So all of us must have a good chance of getting a "proper" job now. What does everyone else think of this??
Nice piccie of my old girl on the page, but!!
Keep your chin up MPT.
