Hello, fellow Illinois Pilots.
I graduated Institute of Aviation in '96. Started flying freight and haven't stopped yet. Currently flying a Heavy Airbus for a non-sched operation. Hope things are going well for you all. I lost touch with just about everyone after I left for the "real world". Sorry to hear about Rick passing away.

Later everybody.

Hey Abus, where are you based? I see some A300 freighters at one of the places we fly, wondering if that would be you.

 

[Abus300Pilot]

Probably us.

We hub out of DAY for Emery. You guys stay at the Fairfield don't you? When I get in from MEX or LAX I usually see a crew heading out about 4:30am or so.

Yeah, then those are your jets I've been seeing in DAY. I actually start my trip early tomorrow with a turn through there. We do stay at the FF Inn. Do you see our crews at the hotel? Those are standup crews... I avoid standups like the plague.

I do see you guys at the Fairfield Inn. That is if I stay downstairs long enough to eat breakfast. Usually after a long night sitting on my butt and looking at the stars I try and head to bed before the sun catches me out of my coffin.
