I think your remarks about Executive Fliteways (EFI) are total hearsay.
I am personally and intimately familiar with EFI's operation, it is a top notch 135 operation in a sea filled with the dregs of the earth and one operator trying to bankrupt another. EFI is far above that type of garbage, and their management and staff couldn't be a nicer and more professional bunch of folks to work with. I rate them AAAA+, for anyone wanting to get on board. And being based on Long Island doesn't mean that you have to find a house that's going to cost $800k. There are plenty of affordable and nice towns east of Islip Airport.
