I'm gonna go on a limb and suggest you just PM Dust Devil...

Wild guess:
This guy has been contacted by the company, thus by DD, so I don't think he is going to do that...

Well then if he's been contacted by them and he's asking what it's like to work there AFTER THE FACT. DD better not hire him, because obviously he doesn't give much of a sh9t to investigate the company BEFORE HAND.

CYYZ;

The website is presently u/s so at this point I would venture to say that I am assuming that he is trying to get info on the company by any means possible, which includes asking around

Great company, couple of spots opening up very soon. Get your resumes in.

Exactly, and if he's investigating b4 hand, which is great to hear, his best bet is to PM you since you're DD's favorite and/or DD himself(since he's on nearly 24/7).

Cyyz; LOL........I'm not DD, (If i was i might take a long walk off a short bridge

).

The position that opened up there was indeed created by me leaving. It's a great company, great guys, excellent pay, solid equip. I had a great time there and i'm gonna miss it.

The boss (DD) is an awesome guy to hang with, however, many a hangover was the result of "just going out for 1 beer" with that man.

Need I say more?

I seem to recall you suffering a hangover or two???? Don't forget about Karen's you know what's

Thanks to everyone who posted. I had searched the message boards for info on the company. All good stuff good boss\equip\pay\sched. etc. Some interesting speculations on my post. Been contacted, haven’t been? Investigating before or after being contacted. I have learned so much about investigative etiquette. You guys think way too much, stick to flying it doesn’t hurt the brain so much.

Thought my post would bring out some PF guys that would say great things about PF and DD. That would put DD in a good mood and then he’d hire me. Simple plan, let’s see if it works. BP and OoC thanks for playing your part (I knew I could count on you). Now if we can just get DD to play his, I too can be posting next month talking about some memorable hangovers. A memorable hangover is one when you can’t remember how you got it.

Good luck to whoever gets the job.

Excuse my ignorance, but what kind of airplane do they operate and what kind of survey ?

Thanks.

Tom.

curious as to what's good pay in the ho.

wallypilot · Post by **wallypilot** » Sun Dec 18, 2005 10:53 am

does Proflight own it's own LIDAR systems? If so, are you using the OPTEC system, or something else?

Dust Devil · Post by **Dust Devil** » Sun Dec 18, 2005 12:28 pm

That would be giving out too much information. sorry

Anybody get this job or is it still open? I never got a call but maybe someone else got lucky. Sounds like a great gig.

Cheers,
