Default Question about the B1900

Does the B1900 have a jumpseat? Looking specifically about Great Lakes. Thanks for any info.

The 1900 doesnt have a physical jumpseat, however that doesn't mean that you can't jumpseat on one as an OMC... Great Lakes does accept jumpseaters (open cabin seat) if that's what you're asking.

Seat 1A...that's where the headphone jack is. If the back is full, you're SOL.

If you were wondering more about jump seat policy, then yes, Lakers jump seat regularly, and ZK is a full member of CASS. Don't be too worried about the absence of a physical jumpseat - we rarely fly the Beech with a full 19 pax on board unless we're covering for a broken Brasilia (which does have a jumpseat).

Man I miss that, getting done with a long day only to get junior-manned for DIK-ISN because the beater EMB broke down.

Wait, no I don't...

I'm not on the Brasilia, but from what others have told me, it does pretty well in the winter out of Denver, though it might be slightly restricted. Outside of Denver at the lower elevation outstations it is not that restricted, even in the summer, so I hear.

Yep, big restrictions out of DEN in the Summer, but in the winter, always max weight. Below 4000 ft, it doesn't take any hits, provided there's adequate field length.

Besides that, you really don't want to sit in the jumpseat. Comfort wasn't in the plans when they made it.

MD11, sorry if you ever had to pick up any of my flying. I swear it wasn't my fault. If anything, we got tagged ferrying it up to CYS. Hope all is well. You still in ANC?
