I am a US former helicopter pilot. 6 thousand plus hours in various types, military, offshore gulf of Mexico, Alaska, etc, etc. After reading through most of the posts on this page, i realize I really have done nothing compared to you guys. My hat is off to you all. Never worked for Bristow but came close with the purchase of Offshore Helicopters inc at Sabine Pass Texas. I actually left for a fixed wing job a few months prior. I digress. I have greatly enjoyed the stories of family connections and living in some of the far away places on contract. Different world, different time. I salute you all
