Another one pretty pleased with the job I'm at now. Doesn't get much better. Good pay, good machines, good pension, good maintenance, safe operation with good clear safety culture and management and customers who appreciate this. Of course if they offered to double my pay and let me work half as much, then it would bet better!

Right now i'd like any flying job any where

The best job flying helicopters is always one you had previously. It just takes retrospect to realise how good some jobs are - the moral of the story would be to always try to enjoy it while you can.
so far it's just like that

Best job? Sussex Police/Ambulance. Shame about the pay!

Best for pay/time off? The one I have now. http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...2637784011.jpg

Do your parents know that you have a Pprune account?

Mitchaa,

Did you know that abject fear can actually interfere with your skill sets? :eek:

On first glance usual, ordinary, common jobs vastly change when you spice them up with sensation of operating a flying machine.

For example, take a walk in the park.
Now do it with helicopter.

Mine. I'd tell you about it but then you would have to kill me and apply for my job when I'm gone....;)
