Actually its a 207 position that is available, and from what I have heard it could lead to more contracts in the future. Don't know what the pay is like but could be a pretty nice trip flying from Ontario to Alberta

you are right...its a 207 from NAT (Ministry mandates the contract, hence a high time requirment)

What kind of work is NAT doing in Edmonton? Sure as hell can't be sightseeing tours...

HEY...be nice... i like YEG....(and Cowtown is OK, i guess...

)
and yes, the flight from Ontario to Alberta is awesome.. that's how i moved out there initially. Low and slow is the best way to see the country, without a doubt.

would love to do that flight someday...definitely on my "To Do" list in life...now, needing a 206 driver in Cowtown, that makes complete sense - foothills, mountains, Bow Valley

I'm guessing that doesn't include driving in the car?

The reason for this position is that NAT acquired a government contract to do some survey type work in the area, and apparently there could be other contracts in the future as well.
