I was there from 1989 to 1998. What you said above is so true! TWA had a culture of true aviators. I can't even begin to convey how much I appreciate all that I learned during my time there and how much I enjoyed flying with those great folks.

TWA really took care of the jumpseaters too. Only had the pleasure a couple times, but treated like royalty. Thank You.
