Cargo In SC
I have noticed periodically on AirNav.com a Shorts flying a route at night between CHS and GSP. I can only assume it is a cargo flight since no one in their right mind would own one for fun or corporate. If anyone has information on who this might be please let me know.

That's a tough company to get your time at.. You can upgrade and get the ME Turb PIC, but it's getting it the hard way. I think they make you pay for a portion of the training as well. In this market.. I guess we don't have very many options. Have you tried AirNow? Look them up. They are in that area as well and I think they are hiring for the 208 and the Emb 110.

I was wondering since they were flying routes in SC where I live. I thought it would be great to try and find a company to work for where I could build time and wouldn't have to commute great distances. It seems to me that most of the freight dawg companies are either out west or up north. I guess I will be stuck playing the CFI game.
Thanks for the infor on AirNow. I will deffinately check them out.

Yes that flight is by ACC...but please don't speculate about the company. It's a great place to work, not all the runs are tough, some are fun and have a great QOL. YOU DO NOT PAY FOR ANY TRAINING, they pay you while in training. ACC is a great option during this time. They treat you right, and you'll gain a lot of experience while doing it.

Thanks .. my mistake.. I thought I had heard they wanted $7500 and a two year commitment.. but honestly.. if you're building time, two years is what it would take to get a nice padding of ME PIC turbine time. I did the Mil route, but think I missed out on some of the fun jobs that can be had out there.
