Please don't get disheartened by the negativity shown by some here. There are some crusty old cynics around who fly very little and do shifts of chip-sucking.
Piston-singles are the life-blood of the helicopter industry and the advent of the 44 has created more jobs in the past decade.
There are many pilots who make a good living from flying R44s and do hundreds of hours a year in them. Don't look in the obvious places for your employment. Be smarter. Sniff out the unusual and the challenging.
Be presentable, be personable, always think about the client. Smile. And ensure your skills are, of course, top-notch.
Very best of luck.
If you want it, you'll get it.
