Hughes Airwest

Still don't get it. What's wrong with flying out of a gate? Beats trucks and stairs.

Flew the EMB145 for 4800 hours as PIC. Glad to get out of it.
Flew the B737 for a year. Glad to get out of it.
Flying the B757/767. Nice aircraft.

#1 - Air Canada at YVR

#2 - Alaska at SEA or LAX

#3 - United at LAX

#4 - Hooters Air - myrtle beach looks nice :D

What did you not like about the 737?

Besides Frontier or Southwest I wouldn't mind working for a cargo carrier, but I'm not sure I'd want to have to go through a few years as a flight engineer - just seems like it'd be real boring.

Hey, Mike

When I worked ramp for BM airways, AKA Pan AM, AKA clipper connection, or whatever you called them. The Pan AM guys still wore White Hats. That was only a few years ago. I thought they looked very cool too. Thumbs up to Pan AM

Oh, and I would say maybe British Airways because I'd get to call myself speedbird over the radio:D

Lake Powell Air, pre-Grand Canyon SFAR

Five airports on the most beautiful lake on the planet. 10 Feet over the glass at sunrise. Chasing horses on Cummings, Descending after takeoff at Bullfrog, Hite with venturi winds out of three canyons, Between spires in Monument Valley, scud running the Kaibab, pitching horseshoes at the Bar10 Ranch. Flying through the narrows at Mead at sunset.

Cowboy boots, dirt strips, movie stars.

The only downside was the mind numbing smell of Japanese puke. (Must be the raw fish) or the body odor of French women who have spent a week on the Colorado (two things in the world smell like fish and fish is one of them).

#1. Tied: Air Canada & PanAm circa 1970

#2: British Airways / Air Jamaica

#3: Virgin Atlantic


---> Pan Am is the greatest ever! Hands down. No contest! I hope they get another chance!

P.S. What's the deal with JetBlue? I dont hear anyone ever talking about them. It's almost like they dont exist?

Persian chicks are sexyyyyyyyyyyyy! Whoooo....

WHAAAAAT???????? Awwwww, come on....you get a good workout going up and down those stairs. :D
