No not King. They were the only operator that seemed like they were worse than ours. I flew for Sunshine out of VNY. We would fly direct from VNY or anywhere they could get paying passengers out to the Canyon. You have to love a a proposed 2:00 leg with :30 minutes reserve. Even though it seemed to always take 2:15 to get there and back. Those were fun times. I really do miss a lot of what went on with that flying. We also seemed to have a lot of late night crew meetings that are very memorable.
