Saw this under the Home Based 1900 posting.......any idea how ESCS works? What is integrator?

May fly integrator or ESCS (charter) flights. When flying ESCS, will be required to assist in load / offload of cargo.

generally+1 for all
But pilot load/unload does involve fairly substantial extra pay.
For some it's s no go, for others a $$$ evil.
Both a very different lifestyles, with different typical patterns of work.

Obviously the types that require two pilots...!

Much of the ESCS is in the Metro and also is crewed with two pilots.

Charter flights are regularly flown in the SA227, E120 and SF340. Obviously the SAAB and Brasilia require two crew. The Metro CAN be operated single pilot but we prefer to use two crew so they are able to go up to 10 hours of flight time under 135.267.

We normally don't use Beech aircraft (99 or 1900) on charter operations.
