    Trust me, I would love to fly up there. Not in the crap weather, but Alaska in general would be the sheeit! I'd get my fixed wing add-ons and live that bush pilot life.

    Your company hiring pilots? I don't stand a snowflakes chance I imagine. Most companies flying up in AK hire pilots that trained in AK. If they'd entertain the idea of a Texan up there I'm freeze resistant, work hard, and don't complain as long as I'm getting paid. I'll send an experience report in a heartbeat.

    Yep, hot and humid usually. We get in the triple digits and the humidity is usually 80% or better.

    If you do, try to get up north of San Antonio, into the hill country. The hills stop all the heavy moist air off the gulf from moving north so it's not nearly as humid. Humidity is a thermal amplifier. If it's hot, it makes it feel hotter - if it's cold, it makes it feel colder.
