Alouette,
There is always the wonderful world of transcontinental truck driving....you too could forge that special bond between Man, Machine, and the Open Highway!
There are always other opportunities out there....afterall most helicopter jobs are transitory events for one reason or another.
Look for the operator that is on an up-swing....and get aboard....ride that wagon until it reaches top dead center then heads down again. Repeat as often as necessary until you croak, retire, or marry a rich woman.
