I am with SAS... Wires are difficult to see. In order to fly for PG&E and WAPA, all of my pilots are required to complete annual training on "Flying in the wire environment". The initial course is TWO full days...... Before attending, I thought the same as most---how do you fill 2 days on wires....? I now do the annual one day refresher every 12 months and still learn new stuff on how to detect wires.

If you have not seen it, this is worth a watch:
