Detroitpilot said:We have 3 DC-8's at Murray Air, two 63's and one 71. They fly mainly in support of the automotive industry in North America. During the Christmas season UPS keeps us busy domestically. International trips do come up from time to time, but lately are scarce. They have been working on some international contracts, but it's tough to compete in a widebody market with narrowbody aircraft. We've had the 8's for a few years now, they used to be on a 125 certificate, but now are all part 121. We also have two Casas, two Jetstreams, and one Saab.
Thank you for the info. As far as hiring for the DC-8s, do you have any plans? What are the minimums required if seats become available or do you mainly recruit internally? How's the QOL in terms of schedules/days off?
