The Omni interview sounds like a nice add on. I talked to CD a couple years ago about working at Alpine. I ended up taking a job closer to home, but sound like the kind of Chief Pilot you’d want to work for. I think that no contract in the 99 is crucial too. Ameriflight has one for the FO’s that come in. Does alpine have one for them? Personally I think you shouldn’t. But, be extremely selective in who you bring in as an FO. Helps to avoid getting someone who’s just trying to build flightime for the regional and not upgrade at the company.
