Default flying for money

That's interesting. So, these guys don't use their own planes I'm
assuming? Is that better pay than a typical CA firefighter?

Thanks for the help Robert. I haven't thought about going to CA, but
that makes a lot of sense. What is an A&P ticket?


Mechanic. During fire season they position their planes in some remote
areas so they like to hire pilots who can work on the planes. I've
known a couple of guys who have flown for CDF. Usually they know that
is what they want to do and spend a couple years dusting crops to get
a lot of low altitude time.
