Fun opportunity for float pilots.

Post by ragbagflyer »

FYI guys, the work formerly being done by Black Sheep Aviation with the Garrett powered Otter and Caravan out of Whitehorse and Mayo is now under the banner of Alkan Air. This is hands down some of the most spectacular and challenging float flying in the world. They've just posted a position in the jobs section.

Looks pretty damn close to living the dream (or at least flying it). Hoping to get a my first job on floats this summer, though it'll be a while yet before I am ready to tackle an Otter. Thanks for the beautiful videos.
