IFL... the good bad and ugly?

[SheGaveMeClap]

You're killing me!! That man has hands the size of a bear paw. Don't touch anything on his side of the airplane, and if you do, make d@mn sure you duck!!!

Heck Ya he does, I was gonna mention that! His fingers are the size of Johnsonville Bratwursts!

Does anyone know if they have a web site?

What kind of time mins for FO?

Thanks!!!

 

[EX580FR8Dawg]

Im afraid to be the bearer of bad tidings celloman, but they dont have a website and competitive minimums from what i hear from my buddies that are still there would be somewhere in the 15-2000hr range and 2-500hrs multi.

I guess the only thing I could reccomend is keep doing what you are doing and things will fall in to place. Unless you are comming from a school that has a contract with a regional or whatever it may be, its gonna be hard to get a job other than dropping bouncers out of a 182 or 206.

Good Luck! Remember.... a lil presistence and hard work never hurt anyone.

Spent a lot of time in those Convairs when the only freight they carried were briefcases........... I still have to drive by PTK every now and then and take a look at the old girls Next time you fly over 7D2, honk

IFL

Do they still have to where those IFL Brittish Comando jackets. Why does'nt anyone miss the DC-3's.
Fill the Oil-
Check the Fuel.

 

[SheGaveMeClap]

Holy Sh!t!! I forgot all about those early morning bucket-o-beer sessions at the P.L.I. A guy feels like a real soak sitting in there by 10 AM, but what the heck? Hammered by noon, asleep by 1:00, beeper going off again by midnight. Do it all over again. Lots of zombies over there..... they all show up at YIP about 1:00 AM waiting for freight.

580

Miss flying the old bird. Mine was mostly oilfield workers and fire fighters. Far as I am concerned it is the only real turboprop twin out there. Fill the fuel, seats and baggage and go.

 

[EX_CV580FR8Dawg]

I agree, the 580 is real man's plane. Any other twin turbo- prop is just a toy in comparison. There is nothing like the sound of those ol' Allisons turning! It's always a nice sight to see the trails of Black Smoke comming from those birds, Be D@mned EPA!


Anybody got the number of that truck driving school?
