Bell 206 helicopter flying

Bell 206 L helicopter
Back in 2017 I flew some freelance over in Norway with a Bell 206 helicopter. Truly amazing experience, Norway is a very beautiful place to fly. However it can be very deceiving with the weather. Flying around here in the north you have to monitor weatherchanges at all times.
This was a 3 day job with a norwegian water analysis company.
Great people to work with, safety first and no stress!
Just get the job done safe - I like that attitude.

how do you get a job like this? What is your pilot background?

Hi Cod,
I think it’s a combination of luck and being at the right place at the right time…! 😊
But don’t get me wrong, the helicopter pilot career will mean lots of ups and downs, sweat and tears..!
I did my training at Bristow academy in 2010 and slowly worked my way up the ladder from there….
Does it answer your question? 😊

Why did the company buy a 206?

Hi! It was leased by a norwegian company for the year since they had all their other machines booked for the fall of 2017.
