True. I have a friend with an A&P that works on the helicopters that transport oil workers to the ocean rigs. He makes good money.
This is actually in Asia but the pic was cool so I posted it anyway.
Friend worked the rigs in the Gulf until horizon. Told me he'd fly out for 2-3 hours in a helo to get on rig.
Thats' a long time in a shaker for me.
