Middle Eastern Posting

Have been offered a good flying post (IFR Capt) in the ME but have no idea of the going rates. Not the normal offshore stuff. What would be a good daily rate and what other extras should I expect....

Jim Beam

how do you check for leaks???

Apparently this accident was caused by water leaking into the hull such that when the pilot applied a touche of nose-down the whole lot ran forward and tipped him over. How do you check for leaks...

Would I buy an Mi8 ?

I wouldn't claim to be an expert on the Mi8 but having flown in them and having checked out the MTV (apparently the bees-knees of Mi8s) I would rather go by boat. Mi8s have a fundamental design flaw...

Scillies chopper going back in time

Does the move from PZ to Lands End Airport mean the end for the rather dubious Cat A Heliport departure and a return to more sensible Cat A clear area ops?

You may be missing the point.........

.......A minority of HEMS missions are truly life-saving but you never know that this is going to be the case until later. Crucially the difference between a successful outcome and an unsuccessful...
