    Downunder - How many of us are there?

    Fully understand what you are saying, but there is a point as to when it is no longer viable. Jobs where we were getting $300 for, clients are getting for $95. I don't know about you, but am not preapared to put $7500 of equipment in the air for $95. Clients prefer the quality of our work, but...

    Downunder - How many of us are there?

    Well thanks to CASA and their infinite wisdom in introducing the sub 2kg class, we have decided to join the mass exodus and leave the industry. Unfortunately the way the regs are at the moment, certified operators are at a distinct disadvantage. We have gone from 8 to 9 jobs a week to 2 per...

    USA Angry neighbor!

    I get this quite regularly. Always by people who have no idea what they are talking about. It is to the point now where I am considering giving up realestate work except for acreage. Not worth the aggrevation for the amount I get out of it.
