In the summer it will be hot as %$&* and you will get bounced around all day. In the winter you have to worry about getting trapped under a low ceiling with potential ice or rain.

I think the worst part is that you are not going anywhere. Typically it's just flying around all day spotting oil rigs, pulling units, rednecks on tractors etc.. It gets old real fast.
