Cool

Something worth mentioning about this type of work is the lack of any sort of rostering pattern. You mostly can't plan any sort of home life or make a date to do anything else. Horses for courses. Generally its day flying and to nice places usually. You get to sit around fbo's for ages waiting for the pax who may decide to go somewhere else at a moments notice. The machines are generally whizzy and smart, you make the client feel comfortable and he/she won't want to fly with anyone else and you've got a job for life or until they sell the aeroplane and you find yourself on the market again!
Its a good life but with no security and often no pension etc. But then we don't do it for those things do we!!!!!!!!!
