Seasons of Change

Better than the views in Manitoba, even if you do only fly for half the year.
Well, I've been told that, during my aviation career I can expect to get laid off twice. If this statement holds any truth, I should be heading to the EI office for the final time. When I was hired in the spring by Pacific Coastal I was told that it would only be for the summer, as all the fishing lodges close down in September. As expected, this past week, I received my notice that the summer season was over and my services would no longer be required. I was given the option of being on call if some flying came available, which I would have happily accepted, but I might just be a little busy.
Four days after recieving my lay-off notice, I got a phone call from another company asking if I would like to attend their ground school starting in the beginning of October. It is an F/O position on an aircraft I've never flown, and will be based in Vancouver.
So, with any luck, by mid october I should be taking to the skies in a new aircraft, going to new places, for a new company.
