Not sure if that's what you were saying, or if you were just saying that you wouldn't mind working for a tour company. He just moved from puerto rico. He had a pretty sweet deal out there too. Sounds like you have a pretty good start in the business. It has been good for him.
    Its a lot of fun, he probably has a lot more hours than me. It's a blast, I couldn't think of a better job!

    one of the places i contract for. beach cruising haha

    Yeah but it still doesn't really make sense for civilian use. From my understanding the maintenance and upkeep is absolutely off the charts, and fuel consumption is also pretty bad. They are faster, and can do short vertical takeoffs, but what civilian applications would that even benefit?
    I don't disagree, but there is a lot of impractical aircraft out there. Like that new x2. Lets face it helicopters just aren't designed for super fast flight or long distances. From a military stand point I can see the osprey being some what useful though. I don't think I'd want to be flying one though.

      I've got a lot of hours logged on the R-22s and 44s, but only simulator time on the UH-1s. I hope they're close to the sim, because it's just like riding a bike. If you get one, let me know.
