Canadian VFR Heli Pilots for international work

Hello everybody


I’m a Canadian VFR helicopter pilot hoping to get into some international work. Don’t exactly have a preference as to where, just want to fly in some new areas and keep busy year around. I have an FAA Pilot Certificate as well. Hoping to make some contacts from this or at least some ideas as to which companies to look into.

Thanks in advance!

Are you a precision long line guy? Hours and what types do you have?any 407? PNG is busy and also the Antarctic is looking for 412 and 350 drivers.

Thanks. Not precision yet, but getting some time on a line. Over 1600 total time and with as350 ec120 and r44 endorsements. Been looking into the Antarctica stuff. As far as I've seen there is only one company there?

Or try to fly in Europe with out a EASA licence. Or just try to go to Canada to get work without a Canadian licence and a paper (passport) saying you´re a resident.

Flying is flying, but the differences are in the licence and language barriers.
