I spent 3 years with ADA and had a great time... The pilots there were some of the best professionals I have worked with anywhere in the world, and that includes the north sea/irish sea/sns. Of course one or two knob's always slip through the net, but they are soon found out and usually removed
As for the accommodation, I never had a problem.... Got off the flight, got in a taxi and went straight to my 3 bed apartment in town that my honey had set up as her contract started before mine
Never spent one single night in the "chicken ranch"
Yes it costs you money, but if you are happy, there is a life outside ADA and there is/was always plenty of overtime/workovers to make up for the rent
Just depends what sort of deal you are after really, but I know that my gig would not suit everyone.
Good luck and watch out for bandits at 3 o'clock in the Zakum field.
