I figured I'd just pass it along and was also wondering if it's legit? I noticed the producer wasn't named. Anybody else get this?The leader in production of outdoor adventure television programming is now casting for bush pilots in Alaska for a potential new television series.
This docu-reality series will follow three bush pilots throughout Alaska as they transport hunters, fisherman, prospectors, and adventurers to secluded locations, deliver supplies to off the grid survivalists, assist remote construction companies with hauling in materials, and aid in the search for missing outdoorsmen.
We are looking for dynamic pilots with big personalities--lots of heart, stories and laughs to share, and experience taking off and landing on lakes, rivers, dirt strips, and dry riverbeds that are all in a day's work for Alaskan bush pilots. The best characters will be able to tell viewers about the perils of flying in remote and wild Alaska but will also live the Alaska lifestyle in their off hours--hunting, fishing, trapping, prospecting, etc.
Types of pilots and situations that we’d be interested in hearing from are:
* A multi-generational bush pilot operation--old pilot and a bold pilot.
* A young pilot new to the Alaskan back country but who is fulfilling a lifelong dream to fly in the frontier.
* A seasoned veteran who’s seen it all and done it all!
* Clean safety record is a requirement.
* And sense of humor is a must along with the ability to tell great stories of the signature Alaskan existence!

The real problem with flying around here is that 95% of the time, it's as fun as watching paint dry, and then waiting for it to peel. So the TV producers inject all this ridiculous drama and make the pilots look like incompetent jackasses. Then an FAA inspector hoping for a promotion watches an episode of this "death-defying" drama and starts an investigation. Makes for good entertainment though...
