Not every pilot is cut out to be an instructor, but that does not mean that he or she cannot make a very good commercial or airline pilot. Therefore, another way to build flight time is flying Pipeline and Powerline Patrols. These pilots usually fly for an aviation company that contracts survey services to pipeline and utility companies. Pilots fly at lower altitudes over power lines or pipeline routes, looking for signs of damage, leaks, or to find the cause of reported outages. Pipeline and Power line survey flights often fly over rugged, otherwise undeveloped territory that may not offer convenient emergency landing areas. These pilots take extra care to preflight their aircraft and to plan flights, so they know the locations of alternate airfields. Pilots working for these agencies may also conduct other flights including flight instruction—if qualified—or transport equipment and personnel from one site to another. Pilots may fly fixed wing or rotary wing aircraft. Helicopter hours count toward total time just like fixed wing aircraft.
