I hear that brother! When i went to training, i couldnt afford a ticket either so ended up driving from Florida to ADS and lived on sandwiches and hotpockets!

They pay for the hotel and as i remember it brekfast was included!

You can do it pretty cheap but that doesnt pay the bills - same everywhere you go i guess :erm:

It's safer to taxi with the strobes on.

 

[PC12Cowboy]

WHAT??? I never turn on the strobes..lol

Where does Martinaire fly the van to in norcal??

I've never seen it, although back in '96 or so, the 228's were CONSTANTLY buzzing around SMF,not flying, just taxing all over the dam place!

 

[PC12Cowboy]

Props they want me to fly to ACV from mhr and back

 

[toolboX]

Anyone have any good info on the Arcata run?

 

[propsarebest]

MHR-ACV eh??

not tooo shabby! In case u need to get back home for some reason, we fly to SMF-ACV a couple of times a day, and Martinaire is on our jumpseat list.

I picked up a little in the last few months but nothing major - one nice thing about flying in the SE!
I see you used to fly a PC12 -- i bet that is an awesome plane to fly, how come your not flying that anymore?

1000 hours of Caravan "captain" time and a 50cents might get you a coke at the FBO. Probably not though.
