Re: Iraq Gigs?

I've heard there aren't enough takers for the job of covering those 'busy' 17km from airport to green zone in a bolkow 105
Salary now up from £100,000 to £150,000 for any future "merc's".

I wonder what your life expectancy is, doing a job like this.
Surely a young whipper snapper perched on a flat roof somewhere waiting for a 105 to go over, just shoves a stove pipe down your rear from 200yds off and you're a statistic and you didn't even see it coming???? Painless I suppose.
