Erickson is probably your best option if you want to crane. Dozens of operators fly Hawks. PJ Helicopter in California is always looking.
NONE, that I know of appreciate the military mindset. Straight dirty boots, loggers, power line, fire fighting. Rarely mention the military days and be humble. Prepare to second seat a crane on fire for at least 3 seasons. Helps if you know people. Erickson HR email foolishness is waste of time. When I was Erickson the CP would do phone interviews without HR approval. But that was introduction only by in house people.
The fire side of Erickson is all tank but you’ll probably not need to do any as you’ll be a flying secretary/instrument watcher/ radio talker.
Most Hawk operations? Also second seat but ready to PIC and precision long line using a 100,150 200 foot line. Also don’t much like military mindset.
The CP at PJ came up from fire and a fueler decades ago. He came up from lights doing power line work so he’s full blown utility.
