Freight Runners in MKE

[8AF]

Hi everyone,

Got a call for interview with FRE in MKE. I read previous messages about this company but I need more details. Wonder if anyone have experience with them or heard anything about this company. Any information is appreciated.

These are the things I want to find out:

1. Maintenance - Please rate
2. Wx pusher or not?
3. Schedule
4. Pay
5. Friendly?

Thanks again!

I work at an FBO in RFD and see these guys alot. They are normally very friendly and curtious. Ive personally seen a few pilots sit out some weather before so i dont think they are big wx pushers. Some of their planes look pretty tough but have nice avionics and the engines sound really good, its just the paint that makes the plan look run down. This is just what i have seen. When i have the flight time im going to try and get on with them.

No, i am not. Why do you say it like that? Care to elaborate if you disagree?

Ive herd their BE99's, 310's, 402's and each one sounds like it runs healthy and strong. Just my observation, if you have one then you can share it as well.

I know nothing about Freight Runners. I am questioning the comment you made regarding how an aircraft's engine sounds somehow relates to their maintenance. That just makes no sense at all...................

I can see where it may make no sense at all for me to make that comment in regards to maintenance in general. However the engines are the important mechanical part of the aircraft and thats why i said what i did, its the only maintenance related comment i have about Freight Runners.

I see alot of cargo operators through the door of the FBO im at, i have never seen a frieght runners aircraft have to sit on the ramp because its broke. Unlike Ameristar, Cherry air ect...
