I told you it was a slew of questions. I have previously flown part 135 cargo/DOD passengers and west coast commuter flying (Jetstream 32) so I'm curious how your operation compares. It really looks like a great place to work.
Love my job! I am only looking at UAL and SWA because I'm 29 and it's less of a gamble that I will have a job 35 years from now.
Any more questions please send em my way!
