I got a new jerb
« on: April 18, 2014, 03:03:54 PM »
Flying Cessna 172s for an airline/charter outfit in Bethel, AK. It's hard work, the days are long, but the pay is good and the benefits are great


I get to commute home and travel for free on my days off, and our shifts only last 2 weeks. So far I really like it

Cool :rock

I do wonder though, when you're up there... do you ever see tanks spawning on the ground or red/green labels above aeroplanes in the air? :headscratch:

Do you check your six often, just in case? :headscratch:

Which company you flying for?  A friend of mine flew Cherokee 6s out of Bethel for a while, he's now flying Airbus 320s for US Air.  Challenging conditions, stay heads up.

That is NOT what was required for this to be acceptable.
