I am a bit hesitant to try and explain what our culture is, but what the heck...

Considering that the vast majority of our pilots live in Colorado, I'll say one part of it is the Western/Colorado/mountain culture. That is to say, laid back, friendly and helpful. Perhaps a bit more laid back than people from the busy, crowded North East.

We have a pretty small percentage of ex military pilots here. Lots of our pilots are veterans of regional carriers and corporate gigs. Therefore we have less of the captain is God thing here. I think most of our pilots actually understand what CRM is.

Our pilots also take care of the entire crew. It's not like at United where half the pilots don't even say hi to the flight attendants. Being a smaller company also helps out with the more family feel. Most everyone knows everyone else and it makes working here very pleasant
