K rudd sponsorship - one of the many options

I would think that in today's maket you will be looking at getting a job if you have your 200 or so odd hours up heading up north to a remote area you should be able to land something.

Please make sure you have your CSU and retract, otherwise you will kick yourself. Plan on earning *not more* than 35K in the year. And remember that the cost of living is very high in some places up north.

Do not think for one second you have stopped learning, you are now on worse that student living conditions, and the real learning curve starts. Be safe and try and revise as much as you learnt - at the pub - with other pilots, this will be your lecture hall now and study group in one.

As you start out, remember god blessed you with 2 ears and one mouth, so you should listen twice as much as you speak!

Hopefully you will be able to keep your head down for a year, piss off and do your MECIR, and be back for the next season onto some shiny two engine fandangle of a machine.

Well this is all a plan. Do not get pissed off or angry if you have to sweep hnagers, many a hangar has been swept before, and will be after you have moved on.


Good luck young buck.
