Life on the Skywest Brasilia

[Goose Egg]

If your that bored transfer to the cali system.

It ain't so simple. I shouldn't have to tell you that. You can have your fun Cali flying, I'll take my base in a city that I'd actually like to live in and deal with the rest. It's all a tradeoff.

Would somebody please tell us what it's like to fly around California on 1500 bucks per month? Do you use tents or RVs?

Saw a skywest crew picked up in santa barbara by a KOA van, they all had backpacks and tents.:laugh:

I didn't fly for SkyWest, but did fly the Brakillya. "A hot rod with wings." is the best way to describe it. Fun/fast plane to fly, but if you weren't careful, it could turn around and bite you in the a$$ real quick. Pitch, power, RUDDER TRIM...a habit you'll learn in no time. Very rudder sensitive. I can tell immediately if someone never flew the Brasilia based on watching how well they keep the brick centered. Most non-prop trash pilots think those pedals under their feet are for their comfort.
