jfk 0 Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 guilty Firehawk, hanging here in southern Colorado just out side of Durango. Wettest winter in a 10 years, but a very hot spring. After 5 years of drought , it could be an intersesting one... The Grass is BIG, and it is hot, I bet we are two weeks out from chaos! Just south of here they have a good one running in the Ponderosa Pine between 7-10Kpa, driven up into it by the grass and PJ... So which Empire (i assume)ship you flying down here ? R5 I guess? Ramona? Heaps Peak? Heres a pic of the turkey guzzler: ( you should have seen the cute wildlife girl whos projects this is, ehhh gahds!! :up: ) JFK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Firehawk 0 Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 jfk, I will be on the Bozeman, Montana, Gallatin National forest C-FAHL. Sounds like it has been a wet winter in many places in the south, alot of tall green shrubs, once she gets hot and browns out, it will be very interesting. I worked with a crew out of Durango last summer, They were in Payson helping us out for a few weeks. Check your PM's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Firehawk 0 Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 Hey Duece is that type of work your doing IFR? How busy are you doing that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deuce bigalow 23 Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 Hey Duece is that type of work your doing IFR? How busy are you doing that? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi Firehawk, We have been running around 150 hours a month between a 212 and a 76. Split between 5 pilots, (3 Canadians and 2 locals.) It requires an IFR rating as does all offshore work that I know of but except for night medevacs we are rarely required to use it. The local duty flight restrictions are 6 hours flight and 10 duty per day. Not what we are used to at home. We get paid by the day instead of by the hour thankfully.

Abu Dhabi, Gulf, Aerogulf, and CHC are all looking for offshore pilots. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
