I am a current BE99 captain at Freight Runners and I can attest to that we are having a hard time getting pilots. We have a growing fleet that includes 10 Beech 99s, of which 8 have an Aspen/430/696 combo and the other two will most likely get upgraded in the future. We have 3 Cessna 402s with 1 having the Aspen/430/696 combo. There are 3 Beech 1900s, 2 KingAir 350s, 1 KingAir 200, and 1 Embraer 120. They just added the King Air 200 and recently bought 2 more EMB 120s. So the company is definitly growing and moving in the right direction. The quality of life is pretty good, you have good pay and set schedules with most pilots having every weekend off. Upgrade times are pretty quick, most 402 pilots upgrade within 6 months. There is definitly vertical movement possibilities within Freight Runners.
