That's more than a bit presumptuous.

It's perfectly fine to be content where you are, with the equipment you fly, and even to move to that position from another that some might desire. Not everyone sets an airline as their goal, or a particular piece of equipment, or is infected by shiny jet syndrome.

Actually, it's pretty warm here right now, for the season. I've still got my plane on floats and in the water, which most years would be courting disaster halfway through October. Was talking yesterday to my folks in Oregon, and it's a lot colder there, farm ponds are starting to freeze up, etc. I've yet to see ice on a puddle here.

Oops... senior moment... PANC... Anchorage. Again, Everts is definitely heading in the right direction with the new DO at the helm. Great C/P too.

Default USA Jet

I have several friends who are Capts at USA Jet and they love it. Easily over 100k first year capt pay and judging by the updated their apc profile they have a min of 14 off per month. My buddies all say the days off are in large blocks and they all commute to yip via Detroit.

If it's not too much trouble, could you please ask them to PM me on APC? I'd love to have contacts at USA Jet.

I flew the "9" for three years, I thought it was magic. But, then again, I was coming off the "7".
