What type of flying work do you do?
Just started instructing part time.
What types(s) do you fly?
R22 (just to be original!).
Where? (As precise as you can be without losing anonymity.)
North West UK. (What anonymity? So many people know who I am that I might just as well start to introduce myself as Whirly!
)
Previous jobs?
Still work as freelance researcher/writer, and expect to carry on doing so. Have been a Market Research Interviewer, Occupational Psychologist, Meditation Teacher, worked in promotions and sales, and several other things I can't remember, and which are totally irrelevant. When people ask if flying is a second career for me, I tend not to say it's probably about a sixth.
Previous types?
R44 rating recently lapsed. Have B206 rating in US, but not in UK. Have also flown MI-2 and MI-8 for a few hours.
Military / ex-Military? (Which? What types?)
No
How long have you been flying?
Started f/w flying in 1997, and helicopters in 1999.
How many hours?
350 rotary, 200 f/w
