Speaking of Crew Meals the company has changed their policy which IMO is to the better. Now when you order the meals you are no longer restricted to using Air Cullinare (or whoever they can get). Now you can order what you want from a specific restaurant and the FOC can order via Door Dash or Grub Hub. If you still want Air Cullinare that option is still available.

Like the uniforms. Looks comfortable. Like the airplane too.
Would love to fly it.

Maybe the FAA will replace those King Airs someday with the PC-12!

Maybe PC-24s!
Nah...I'm thinking 360ERs is probably in my future.
Though if I found a friend with a -12 locally I'd be set!
I like that crew meal idea with GrubHub or DoorDash though.

Interestingly, crew meals through some delivery service is no doubt way cheaper than Air Cullinaire, or whoever else. That airplane catering is expensive!

I remember one time we got a crew meal breakfast and all we got was a muffin, a banana, and a juice for each of us and the receipt was $90

That is crazy!
Though that breakfast doesn't necessarily sounds like the bee's knee's - are the crew meal that are catered usually of high quality?
I do like my made-to order-omelets in the morning if possible on the road

Yeah the meals are generally very good. The catering company is the same one that caters the passengers meals. I left before they allowed Uber Eats which honestly sounds better due to the pure variety of options
