Here's a little secret for you. The operators up north aren't going to give a sh*t about hours you have meat bombing. Maybe having a "210 endorsement" (don't get me started, I know there is no such thing, but a lot of them like to see you've done a couple of ccts in a 210 with an instructor) will help a little. Forget meat bombing all of you guys trying to 'gain hours', it's a completely unnecessary, and dangerous step. I hardly know anybody I work with that has done it.

You are much better off packing your stuff up heading up north settling down in your town of choice (Broome, Kunnas etc.) and waiting your turn for a charter job.
