I feel we will start immediately with flights the first week of Dec. Our proving run pilots along with linecheck pilots will fill the schedule and IOE will begin.

Still hiring... FOs only. New mins are 1000 TT; 300ME with turbine and 135/121 exp preferred. Looking to move the majority of training inhouse. We have brought in great people and experienced pilots. No lack of interest for sure.

Thus far about 94 pilots (give or take) with about 40ish FOs. Our last class starts Dec 3 for the year. More classes being scheduled for 2008. 5 crews/plane. Wages will be reviewed asap after cert. and probably after the holidays. It will be adjusted accordingly we all feel. No union.

Look for the 2 planes flying around DIA and the area all this coming week. The others are staged over at BJC ready to go. We are all ready to get flying and growing more routes.

Happy and Safe Holidays!

Just curious, I was down doing flight training out of concourse A last week and saw a couple of the 400's. One of the gate agents did a boarding announcement for a DEN to BIL flight, operated by Lynx, along with Pax getting ready to get onboard. Not sure what that was about, maybe you could help out?

Thats a funny one. Me thinks either the agent made a mistake and was boarding an ExJet bird (they are Lynx employees) or its some kind of true to life proving run with "passengers" from the FAA that I've never heard of.:confused:

With the FAA, nothing surprises me anymore....
