Country: | Yep- Keep checking in at the website for AIR METHODS and PHI Helicopters (a google search should direct you to the exact site). They normally show what openings are available. When you start getting real short I'll try to get you an audience with the Air Methods HR manager (we'll talk more about that via e mail). I know they were looking for folks in Alaska a few years ago, right know from what I understand the hot spot is the US South east.

Country: | And now you get to do the job you love in somewhat safer and more comfortable conditions! And I'm guessing the pay won't be peanuts either!
Good stuff!  |

Country: | As I said I think the Boom method is something to do with fuel flow rates. Fuel is meant to flow more quickly, making it suitable for larger aircraft. The drogue method however, means that up to three aircraft can be refueled at once, depending on their size, however, there are severe restrictions on aircraft size that can be refueled by this method. A B-1, B-25 or E-4 AWACS would just gobble up fuel just as fast if not faster than the drogue method could give it to the aircraft. |
