I USED to work there. Was there 2 years. Got in, upgraded, PIC, got out. Not a bad place to work IF:
You don't commute, WANT to work your butt off (ie BUILD TIME!), and make a LITTLE money.
I enjoyed it A LOT! Fun group of guys (back then, don't know about now). CRAZY flying in the NE, no auto pilot on 1900.
When I started there, there were only 6 AC on property. All1900s. Then they started getting Saabs in 2000. NOW I see they have 58 total!!!
That's even AFTER 9/11, and Untied, and USAirways bankruptcy, now they have a CAL contract again.
I'd say they are doing well. And guys/girls do leave for Majors/Nationals. AirTran, jetBlue, CAL, oh yeah, Spirit...
Anyone working there now have any good/bad? Of course there are always two sides.
