I average 3 to 4 days every two weeks on. Would be a sweet deal if a guy lived in SoCal. Thanks for asking....
On what you are making a move to SoCal would be a no brainer in my book.
And in response to another post:
No way would I go back to flying the old A/C that a 135 freight operator uses. Been there done that got the t-shirt. On the other hand most turbine ambulance gigs pay much better than 40K not 300K but enough to support a family on pending on your lifestyle. My problem is I'm waiting for 1 in the right geographic area.
