Questions about live helicopter work

[deer]

For those of you that do this kind of stuff, I have a few questions:

- How did you get into this aspect of the trade?

- How were you trained?

- Did you volunteer for this training, or were you picked?


- I'm guessing you only do that type of work on days when the conditions are near perfect. Is that true?

- What's the pay like? Is it higher than other linemen at your company?

- What is a typical day like? What kind of tasks do you do?

Did it for a few years here in the uk.

we of things a bit.dirrefernt over here. We use extended ropes to drop a basket on the line.. I was asked to join the team. Money a bit better " not much" ..wind had to be below. 15 mph.
Our lines aren't really built for live line working so we mainly did mid span damage repairs and space ring.
." More time training than actual working..

MY HANGING BASKET. :D
