I was employed by Southern Air, formerly Southern Air Transport, formerly Air America from Jan 1998 to Oct 1998.
They went bankrupt while I was in a holding pattern over Stanstead, UK.
They are a good bunch of folks to fly with, pay sucks, especially during training and management is weak.
I was flying the JKF, ANC,NRT run when I was there. My last trip was the European/Africa run.

Good luck to all who go there.
 
I used to see their C-130s (or L-whatevers) at Charleston AFB when I was there. Suddenly, it seemed like overnight, they all had new green and yellow paint jobs and bore the name "Lynden Air Cargo". I figured Southern Air was no more - not true apparantly?

Lynden is an outfit up from ANC - they actually have those -130's flying worldwide.
 
When I flew with SAT, (89-91) we had the highest time herk around. If I remember correctly it had 79,000 hrs. N908ST I think. Still was the most fun flying I have ever done. ALL over the world. Pay was pretty good though you were gone alot depending on if you had a US line or flew AD-HOC.
