Transporting a Gulf of Mexico gas pipeline measurement tech crew. Predictable loads, never sooner than 0700 and no later than 1900, welcome everywhere for lunch, RoN, whatever.

Only disadvantage was not a lot of flying, on average a couple, three hours a day.

Figures you would get a thumbs down. What did you expect?

Flew ENG 17 years in San Diego of all places.. Raised my family, home every night with them. Station was like extended family. Some days were a pain being on call most of the time. i'e some holidays. Would had retired there  if my partner didn't surrender the contract. No regrets. Good times. Thumb me down ladies..

Every day is a little different, plenty of free time to do whatever I want, great crews, and 10 minutes from home in a nice suburb. I know I'm the outlier, it is what it is.

then utility, then international offshore, then general operators, then HAA.  HAA last only because of all the rubbish one had to deal with concerning medical crews, especially since they could be very vindictive and childish.
