It does kinda look like a demented dolphin...

Without the blowhole, and noses that can kill sharks!

Metro any day over the 1900. It is just more exciting when you have to tell your wife you love her every day you leave for work just in case you don't return that night!

No, why? A lot become pilots at Big Sky but as far as them leaving for somewhere else I couldn't tell ya.

It's the same old Big Sky. I think they just hired a couple new dispatchers from Skywest but if they're fully staffed I don't know. You as well as I know that the only reason any of the people that are here and have been here for a while stay is because of Montana.

Has anyone heard if Big Sky will base pilots in Boston for the Delta Connection operation or will they be based at the out-stations similar to Colgan's 1900D operation? I've heard they fly trips and overnight for their northwest operation, just wondering what they're planning for the expansion...

Thanks...just trying to decide if its worth getting PIC time at their pay living in Boston. Hate to be stuck there if a bigger and better job doesn't happen before hiring comes to a halt with this age 65 rule.
