Hey everyone,
Just a quick question in order to bright it up a little bit a blurry mind... A low hour pilot, recently out of school has just asked me a question that I would like to share with you guys, especially because I was not quite sure what to answer him. He has been offered to opportunities... (Many people would love to have his problem...
).
The first one is to work in a very small company, doing a Power Line contract in a R44, flying around 80 hours a month, which would give him lots of hours in a years’ time and finally give him the so much required 1000 hours or more to do other jobs around the world.
Now the other offer, is to work in the Fire Fighting campaign, the company is willing to give him the Type rate on the B212/412 but he would build up, at most, 150 hours a year, since fire fighting copters here do not fly that often... I told him that the second option is best, since I am also doing fire fighting and the hour we fly is twin-engine and this would be best for his future (it will take longer, but better quality hour, right?)
No big deal but ideas are always welcome
Thanks
