    In my opinion I think all pilots have the best jobs ever:) High up in the air and get to enjoy the beautiful world below your feet:) the last time I get to see the beautiful landscapes from above was in an army helicopter 04 decades ago:( We were being relocated to a different area for safety purpose:(

      You say nothing has changed in forty years !!! You are either ill-informed or naive. In that prolonged time, Indonesian transmigration programs have completely changed the places of Jayapura, Sorong, Manokawi and Merauke into javanese cities - replacing the original Papuans with immigrants. As a Dutch person, you should be aware of Papua's tragic history - apparently that is not the case !!
