>>2243685Bush pilot m8. There are all sorts of independent pilots that fly people, mail, medical supplies, etc all over the Top End by contract. They go to the most god forsaken villages and communities and work long shifts. They're their own pilot, crew, and mechanic. Also they're fucking insane, all flight was grounded during Cyclone Marcus and I was stranded on Elcho Island and the crazy mothafucker got me to Darwin in the fucking storm. The airport had already shut down hours before we landed, the RAAF escorted me off the tarmac to a nearby hotel
