.....aerial survey.

.................Lots of IMC according to pilots

????? Unless your ferrying the plane I can't see aerial survey logging alot of IMC. The aerial survey I flew was done in VFR. Unless its some kind of electronic gathering.

That is the same thought I had. But the pilots said that they will work a VMC area and then flying through and land in what ever storm system/front is coming through and then work the new area the next day when the WX blows out. EX. work southeast TX fly through cold front and work Utah next day.

guess that depends on your definition of "lots of IMC" I flew a little over 1000 hours of aerial survey, most of it in Alaska. I logged 24 hours of IMC flight in that time. (that includes numerous ferrys from AK to the lower 48) Trust me, if it's photo work, the vast majority of your time will be spent flying in clear blue skies.

Ron's

anybody who's done this type of work have anything to say about the number of ron's pilots are asked to make? looks like some of these planes stay pretty far afield for long periods of time. do these operators swap crews every few weeks, or airline you home periodically?
