Boring? If I can handle the boredom of Des Moines to Omaha in the dark with no NVG's with a patient lying where my other front seat should be then I bet I can handle an hour to the next rig in daylight.
Trouble is, how do I convince one of the right outfits that I can? I got turned down the other day because, and I quote, "we are looking for people who have experienced the boredom of offshore flying."
Crikey. I've got 3,600 hours, 3,500 as PIC, an instrument rating, time flying BK's and 105's...and CHC has yet to answer even one of my online applications.
Admittedly, I'm trying for touring positions, as the wife has a job that she really doesn't want to leave, we can't take the cats to the UK, and I'd like a few weeks at a time off. I almost don't care where it is...are there touring jobs (6/6, 8/4...whatever) in the North Sea?
