Offshore female Pic's? (no pictures)
I was reading an interesting history http://www.thetelegram.com/news.aspx?storyID=52772 about the first female pic in Cougar helicopters, hats off to her
.
I was wondering... how many female pics are out there in the offshore role?
Another question that comes to me, How works the progression to pic in the big ones like chc, bristow etc.? based on seniority? more or less how long?
Regards.

With CHC Global (not CHC Europe) it is as soon as you pass a PIC checkride and have at least 1500 hours total. Anybody asking for more is confusing experience with competency. Lots of confused operators and customers out there.

The article is a little misleading. Can you beleive that a reporter would get something wrong
She has only been flying offshore here with us for three years,not eight as written. This will be her third winter flying on the Grand banks, and yes, she is doing a great job. She is rather a joy to fly with.

Offshore? why here in OZ we've got the madam Presidento of the esteemed (and that's questionable) Helicopter Association who even has a book about herself as a helicopter driver.
Mind you most seem to be wondering whether the OZ HAA is on - or - offshore.
Maybe naughty Ned might have some suggestive photos of our heliotrix he could post??????

CHC Scotia Aberdeen have 2 female puma captains and 3 co-jo's and I think all other bases have them as co-jo's too but not sure. Bristow's have about 5 and some of them are P1. Bond have 1 female co-jo.
They probably haven't replied because they are busy doing 10 others things instead of reading PPRUNE
