Did I understand that correct? Also, do you fly six days a week? On a different subject , it appears that they only have the BE99 in PBG, is that correct? Finally, I would like to hear from someone who is, or has worked in PBG, how is life over there? I would appreciate any help anyone can provide. Please feel free to PM if you don't feel comfortable posting your reply here.
Once again, thank you in advance for any help.
PBG is an outstation run from BUF. I was never in PBG however, I went TDY to BUF and was in 99 class with the guy flying that run. He liked the time you blocked (blocking a little over 3.0 a day), and said the town was pretty small, roughly 25k people. In the PM you'll fly to BUF, sleep at the crew appartment there, then fly back to PBG in the AM. Overall he said that he enjoyed it.
