I have a good friend who flies a King Air 200 and is interested in this fractional. I've read the previous posts and it sounds like a good outfit - although the pay (like all fractional operators) is quite low. Naturally it is experiencing some of the expected growing pains (scheduling issues, too few pilots, etc.).
So, I wanted to know how things are going - is Avantair still adding airplanes? How many newhires expected in 2005? Any new pilot bases? Do the pilots fly throughout the country or just regionally? And finally, how do you like flying the P-180 (best and worst features)?
I parked next to one at HPN a few days ago - very stylish looking... Looks like a fun ride (although a little tight up front).
