A little late to the thread, but better than never. In the fall of '07 the FBO that I worked for (the former Keyson Airways @ KASH) hosted 4-5 LC guys & their planes. Like the other guys have said, they fly ALOT. There was rarely a day that they didn't fly. Competent guys and pretty cool too!

We only had a few pilots leave, and they didn't leave until March or so, and they gave Bob and Simon plently of notice so they could replace them.

5260K is a good airplane, and you learn to treat them as your home--since they really are.
I just did 130 hrs training out of NJ in 5260R this thread made me laugh its such a close tail number...and a 172 M

This is what they been telling myself, and my ex-Landcare Aviation pilots. They just interview/hire around Sept, or early October, depending on their main vendor's projections for when the season will begin. Just hang tight, e-mail/call them around mid to late Sept, and you should be alright.

got the application emailed to me today.

one question about the contract. Is it money/verbal or what, it sounds like I would love to do this but my goal is the airlines and since i was hired by AE im in the pool and know I would choose to go back there.

Just wondering how they see this.

i was always told by HR people, that when they see "to whom it may concern" they either throw it away or put it in a stack that they look at AFTER all the ones addressed to someone...

I've heard similar. I was always told to NEVER write "To whom it may concern."
