I agree, it does seem like wonderful flying - although challenging and obviously for experienced pilots only.
There's an interesting article about MAF flying by an old UAS friend of mine in the current issue of Guild News, the journal of the Guild of Air Pilots.
Derek Reeh, who is a Liveryman of the Guild, joined MAF in 2005. Before that he was an RAF fighter pilot for 13 years and then, after ETPS, a BAe test pilot for almost 20 years, working on the development of a number of military aircraft projects including the Eurofighter, becoming Chief Test Pilot in 1995. He was Flight Operations Director when he left to join MAF.

From this .....
Flying the maiden flight of Eurofighter Development Aircraft 4 (first British 2-seater) 1997
..... to flying a Cessna Caravan on aid missions in and out of dirt strips.
Quite a change!
