I will check the numbers and PM you but remember mileage is a Big part of the final result. . personally I only fly the -4 on fire contracts and it is only a 90 days contract so it is not representative of the requested question

Anyone know what the situation is like there this summer? Are they hiring any pilots for the ramp this season?

Cute photo............... Rolowang never said he was going there to ramp..........

Go! I have 800 hours in a DC-3 and it gave me a good push that floats wasn't doing for me.

Learn to fly an old, radial engine a/c and you will learn more about aviation than you can ever learn in a Pilatus, or a Screaming Wienie, or whatever. Invaluable. Beside, you need something to tell your kids besides "I went from Regina to Toronto and back for 13 years in an RJ then I went from Calgary to Toronto and back for 15 years in a 'Bus..." vs "10,000 feet and the MSA was 12,000 and we were iced up like a Popsicle and I had to stand behind the seat pouring alcohol into the prop de-ice tank and the noise from the ice hitting the fuselage 1 foot from my head is one reason I'm deaf today...."

No contest.
