If I was about 10 years younger and no wife/kids, I'd be on this like stink on a turd.

I'd rather have Dave's job and fly a c172 around ak less cargo to load.

Yup. Although my current gig is much better for supporting a family!

Very True, Skyped with my son yesterday from Bahrain. Been underway a lot in a CS ship. Several weeks at a time. I fired up the Nightster so he could see and hear it, he smiled.

I'm so close.. I wonder if they can wait a couple of weeks.

Maybe afterwards I can get typed in the B-17 and fly trips with my grandpa. That sure would be a treat.

Don't have the tail wheel sign off, could be a good time,for someone who isn't looking to move up.

CS, as in Combat Stores ship? What is he doing there?

Eh, I don't wanna live in Alaska. Plus, pilot job opportunities on craiglist seem a bit sketchy.

I was young and went to Alaska chasing a dream. I found it. I have no regrets and highly recommend it. About 2 weeks in the Wrangell-St Elias national park during the off season should be required for every male in the US. Not to mention I was in my early 20's banking a 1/4 mil per year. I got my job off craigslist.

I was told early-on: If you want to fly an airplane, make lots of money and buy an airplane. That way you can fly a nice airplane when you want. Otherwise, you'll be flying a crappy airplane when someone else wants...

I shot them an email. We'll see what they say.

I'm sure it's been filled already...

You never know. I suspect a job like that with those kind of hiring mins has a fairly high turnover.

My brain must have been on break when I typed that. CS should have been PC

One of our pilots had 1500 hours flying for them.

Does the name Desert Air Transport seem odd in Anchorage?
