Diesel Mechanic/Pilot needed!!!!!

Not sure where to put this so here it is, Zzzz/MM ,if its not right let me know.

I was offered a job today that if I was about 5 years younger than my almost 60 (may) I would jump on it, still thinking hard about it and there is more than 1 offered!
It is a real NICHE job.

Have to be a IFR Com pilot and also need to be able to tear a diesel generator apart and put it back together again with the tools and parts you brought with you.

Here is the perk! they will buy you a Saratoga, Known Ice Seneca3, Know Ice CR Panther Navajo, if you are qualified to fly it for the job.
They require Auto pilot, 2 moving maps in the panel and will supply a G 696 for back up!
This will expand there territory to the complete state.

If you sign on and hit it for 5 years of commitment and do it, you keep the plane!!
They do all the maint., Buy all the gas, and keep it in the Hangar when in Anchorage.
Will have complete covers with Reif and Tanis heat along with a generator to pack along.
You will be the only one flying it.

3-7 days on site, 3-10 days in town getting ready for the next.
Damn good pay, all time and a 1/2 from .5 hour before you take off until .5 hour after you get back.
12 hour days when out, 8 hour days in town. Unlimited time when the lights are out! If it takes 36 hours straight to get it running you do it!!
They have Company watercraft, snow machines, wheelers and a couple of nice 26' motor homes for personnel use when not working.
If you do good and they do good, there is also a yearly bonus!!

I'm still thinking about it. Discussing with the wife?? Anchorage area living taint to bad!!
I do not want to post the # but if you PM me I will pass it on.
