I just got married this weekend, which has moved plans around a lot (rightfully so, of course), but I was supposed to be in a thrush and a Cat right now. However, for now I'm planning on holding off, trying to squeeze a honeymoon in here, and then hitting the fire season in a turbine Dromader this year. All things being equal, I plan on making this my last. I may transition over to an OV-10 later this year, depending on a lot of things presently.

That transition back and forth seems to get tougher each time. The last few times I jumped out of a Lear or something similiar right into the ag airplane, and was bouncing back and forth all season.

Bug,

How do the guys there like the OV-10? It was my first mount out of UPT, and although I didn't have much to compare it to I always thought it was a pretty fun plane to fly. It could induce nausea, however, better than about any other plane I ever flew with its heat and vibration. Incentive riders used to get sick with regularity.
 
You were probably flying the A model...these are the D models with some upgrades and changes, and a lot more armor.

I believe most find it a popular ride, but it's all about the paycheck.
