Default Latest on Mountain Air Cargo?

Anyone happen to know if Mountain Air Cargo is actually hiring right now and what their outlook is? And for those of you who are familiar with the company, what kind of schedules do the pilots work on the Fokkers, Shorts, and ATRs? Are they a decent company? I wasn't able to find much recent info on them, but have been considering sending my stuff in.

My bad. I forgot APC showed only ATRs and Caravans. I had been looking at MAC's website earlier and they still had Fokkers and Shorts listed. Regardless, are they still taking delivery of ATRs?...I thought they were supposed to get about 50 of them...

Pretty sure MAC still has has one Fokker left. Unless they changed it out recently. It flies out of BQN in Puerto Rico and to Santo Domingo, Dom. Rep.

The schedule down there was 5 days a week get up at 8am fly the 1 hour flight to MDSD, go to the Don Juan Resort in Boca Chica, hang out and eat for free all day then fly another loaded leg back to BQN at around 5 or 6PM.

Gravy gig if you don't mind doing the same thing day in day out and hanging around in the Dominican all day.

Is MAC really hiring? If so, are they firm on their minimums? I'm extremely interested!
