    Hey all, found this site searching for Louisiana gun forums. I live in Wichita, Kansas right now and am moving down to the New Iberia/Lafayette area in a few days for a helo mechanic job.

    Grew up in Wichita, spent 2 years in the Army after high school, held a brief job in upstate New York and hated living there so I just moved back to Wichita when I got laid off and used my G.I Bill money to go to school for my A&P license. Got into gun ownership and 2A rights when I left the military, got a Kansas CCH and am hoping to get into some IDPA or USPSA competition once I get settled down there.

    Welcome to the BS and La. After spending some time in Crawford County, trust me you will miss the seasons, even the snow.

    I'm not sure about that. After living in Syracuse for about a year I think I've seen enough snow and ice to last a lifetime.

    Welcome! People in the south are super nice (usually) so if you need anything just ask!

    Sounds like you're going to work for Bristow or PHI? My buddy is a pilot for Bristow.
    I have anotjer very good friend from my Navy days who's a mechanic for PHI in Lafayette.

    I grew up in Lafayette -- great area to live.

    Welcome and a kind word of advice. I would recommend starting a workout program which incorporates steam and adapt to breathing it. Especially this time of year.
