Great Company. If you like flying from point A to Point B everyday you'll love the job. I would guess they fly 30-50 min. legs. You'll likely sleep every night and be home every day. The C-208's are pretty cool. They also have Be-99's. I worked there for 5yrs. That was 11 yrs. ago.

I would recommed Wiggins.

PM if you'd like.

I think it's somewhere in the Mid 30's for a c-208 Capt. They have a pay scale, I thought it was published on-line.

Familiar with Wiggens? Of course I am. He runs a large estate in Hawaii. They have a helicopter or two and only one pilot, a fellow named T.C. I've heard they have a cool car you can drive sometimes. Check it out!

Oh sorry, I got confused with Higgins... My bad
