Ha ha. yeah i guess it does come across that way.I actually worked there many years ago when National jet had the contract in the early 90,s.But not as a fly boy.I really enjoyed it and many that left there spent the following years trying to get back in. It was very interesting work with a good crew of people. Its been a long time since i have been there but i chatted to an employee a year or two ago and the work still seems to be just as good. The location was great for people wanting to raise families. If your a city boy dont bother as it is still very much a country town.Heard a rumour that the next contract is a 10 year so that kind of security would feel good.They require ex fighter pilots due to the kind of flying they do so its a good option for guys that dont like the airline lifestyle.
