How about being a Red Bull pilot?

You'd never have any trouble staying awake during those flights.

Have you ever loaded a DC3? It's about the only airplane you can't get a forklift into...

Alaska Bushpilot seems to come up a lot, just call up arctic circle air, or grant, or hageland, if you have 500tt, they'll prolly put you in a 207, having done that, it will make you better, but it will also suck because of the cold...it's snowing in Aniak right now..

Yeah, but not a warbird pilot!

Actually, I would LOVE to fly seaplanes either up in Alaska or down in the Caribbean. I'm from Seattle, so if I were ever able to afford to fly for Kenmore, that would rock the house. Of course, I also want to live a Jimmy buffett life, flying some kind of Grumman amphibian for hire/fun and spending my time chilling on the beach sipping a cocktail...in between surfing, jetskiing, and SCUBA diving.

I have also always thought it would be cool to fly air attack/fire bomber/borate/slurry.

I used to want to fly airshow acro or be an air racer, but as I get more experienced as a pilot those seem less and less attractive to me.
 
Be it early or late in my career, I WILL fly bush in AK for a fishing outfitter. Being a flyfishing guide/bush pilot would be the bomb!
