$700 a day is very nice. $255k a year... I'd do it in a heartbeat. I understand you are getting paid that for a reason, but for someone who has always wanted to be a Military Pilot, flying in a war zone may be the closest chance I'll get to it.
Thanks for all the input.

If you can pass a Second Class FAA physical, you are good to go. This NOT the military. We are not here 365 a year..so you are not making that much money. Most do 180 days.
While this is the EASIEST flying I have ever done, it is probably the most rewarding. War zone...sure it is, but you are out of danger a few hundred feet above the ground.
