Default IBC Airways?

Anyone have any new information on IBC Airways? Seem to be ramping up hiring lately. Those Saab 340's look nice as well as the E145's

Please stay away from IBC. The Safty record is just awful. Also a good friend of mine died in PR as an FO for them. I can tell you he was a good stick but probably caved in to pressure. He made a few comments to me about some safety concerns a month before he passed. I just don't want anyone else thinking they need to go there.

Long days but easy flying. Aircraft are very well maintained and training is very good.

Wow. These are two drastically different responses to the current being of IBC. I did some reading into that accident and it's incredibly sad and I'm sorry to hear that you personally knew the FO. I know that was also back in the days when they had metros. Now with an all Saab and Embraer 145 fleet is safety still a major concern? I've consistently heard both sides of the spectrum.
