Well, I was the number 1 Laker for about a year and a half (not proud of it but that's a fact). That was not much fun. Looking back, I will tell you that the reason I got the job I have at a major was from a captain of mine at Lakes. He remembered me, and recommended me. Let there be no doubt. Great Lakes Aviation is a horrible place to work. I was junior manned and I was #1!!!!!!! Looking back I would suggest to go there but not for as long as I did. Do your best to get out ASAP.
