King Air Career?

[Ian_J]

I have two King Air pilots working for me. The way they did it is by spending a decade or two as Army helicopter pilots and then transitioned to the C-12. They typically work 40 hour weeks, are home every night, and are paid in the mid six-figures.

When they deploy they'll do 6-12 month rotations and generally do 12 on and 12 off every day of the week.

Heh. Not everyone wants their contribution to someone else's life to be terminating it. That said, and to be fair, I've had some patients in the back whose best outcome would have involved a quiet room and a pillow, forcefully held.

I guess I'm a coward, because I like for that not to be my responsability.

Remember, the poster said he wanted to KNOW that he made a change in someone's life, not that he wanted to know he made a positive change.

Believe me, I understand exactly what you mean about "best outcome" after having gone through many years of helplessly watching loved ones physically and mentally suffer while the lawyers circled like vulchers picking at the flesh as they were dying. We are more merciful to our pets.

Just for the record, I wouldn't consider your views to be those of a coward, but rather those of someone who would think seriously about the moral answer to serious moral questions.

And in the same spirit, I do not hold in contempt those who act under color of law and conscience in the act of killing other people. We all want for that to be a profession with no openings, but until it is, I'm glad that we have thoughtful men with a conscience and an ethos of some kind fulfilling it.
