I hear you, i have a neighbor that flies back and forth to Dead Horse every three weeks...I couldn't do it... If I gotta fly that much it'll be a 28/28 rotation....

But the air miles you get because who i worked for you pay then they pay you back so you can get some serious air miles which in my opinion is the only thing worthwhile flying that damn far! Shoot it's 4 hours flying from here in Washington State!

My company pays for the flights, and we get the air miles, but until you rack up lots of them it's hard to upgrade due to them buying budget tickets...

I swear if I ever change to a different comp-any, I'll negotiate that I only fly business class or go elsewhere... I'll give up a little money from the paycheck to ensure I never fly in the back of the bus....

When flying into Deadhorse it is usually company controlled, I.e., BP, Alyeska, Doyon...
But training which is in Anchorage you get your own miles, from here in the PNW or Texas i would imagine that would rack up pretty quick!

Yeah, I think he pays his own way to Anchorage and then flies charter to Dead Horse... He works for an oil company, does NDI work...

We've done some work for ENI... not a bad company to my experience, but that is very limited...

I did some design build work for them for containment barriers when Alaska changed some laws with any type of liquid on land if it were to spill!

Up in the frozen tundra, spills can be a problem I would imagine...

I'm still looking forward to meeting you in person... Hopefully my car will be back on the road soon...

Quite an impressive list of Mods you've performed to your car... Very nice work...

As for Kyle being small, we all have to live somewhere...

It sux, I'm married cause I enjoy my wife's company... Iwish my boys could have come over to watch the game but my youngest is in Houston, and the older one is with his GF...

So, no wife, no sons, no dog.. It's quiet here... so, I'm contemplating making a cake and watching # 2 'Bama manhandle # 1 Notre Dame
