Will they be basing PC12's at MCO or they are just basing guys there to ride to the plane via airlines?
How many guys will a company like Plansense staff roughly at MCO?
Do you think they chose MCO for nearby sims?

Great question here; I'm wondering the same thing. I've talked to a few folks who work part-time for the company. Do they fill in for folks who are sick/in training/on military leave/paternity-maternity leave/etc, or do they have reserves?

The PC24 is so far away, I wouldn't count on being involved with it for a very long time. Also that being said, there is no way a new jet is going to be away from the home maintenance base.. Thats just the reality of the situation.

No clue, last I heard we needed 160 pilots... we have 100 or so

45,000... I wouldn't totally count on becoming a street captain unless you have a very specific jet type rating... Sorry

Another random question...during your 8 days on, do they ever send the plane back to Portsmouth? I see the AF tail number all over New England and it seems like you would save money by sending the plane back to PSM instead of overnighting it in BOS/PWM/etc.
