Pilot here. We all know about airspray and their industry corner... Pay is shit. Hours are shit. Contract is shit. Offer 300k, week on-week off rotations and we can talk.

I think the story is that the water bomber company went out of business, and then people realized the earth was on fire so they hastily restarted production. Unfortunately, canada was ironically the last to put their orders in to our own manufacturer. So we have to wait until other countries get their orders first...

How about rezone housing and using the maintenance budget from urban sprawl.
