Well I am not afraid of hard work, or dealing with BS. I spent 12 years in the US Army, including several trips to Iraq and Afghanistan.

One other thing, I do have both US and UK passports.

So my current plan is this, short term;

I currently work at University of Alaska Anchorage as well as on Elmendorf as an instructor flying mostly C172 and DA20. I have a good shot at spending the summer in Talkeetna teaching float flying in piper pacers.

I will be getting my CFII over this holiday break.

I have considered getting on with a 135 operater flying a B1900 or a Casa or something. But that may hinder finishing my BS degree. Im on pace to graduate next fall, so that is probably when I'd be interested in moving. I have also thought about areas around say, Indonesia flying floats.

Why do you think turbine time would be all that helpful if I were going to end up driving a 206? Maybe I misread that.

Thanks a lot!
