Thanks everyone! I have 675 TT and 45 multi, low-time. The Do 228 looks like it will be a cool plane to fly.

Matt, when you are in Vegas definitely give me a call. How is DWAS? Where are you guys now?

You guys are thinking of the 328. The 228 looks like a seagull.

DWAS is....well, DWAS; it's Groundhog Day, every day. Nothing new there!

After Dallas, I spent a month in New Orleans, then a few days in Lexington, KY and am now in Philly--which is cool if for no other reason than I've now flown coast-to-coast. We've got two projects here and then one or two in Jersey. From there, who knows. (I'm surprised we know that far ahead.) I'm ready for something with two engines, though!

Ultimate JetCharters. I "rescued" a team a few months back that Vision couldn't move because of a flat tire. It happens. Talked to the CA and FO for awhile. They were quite nice.
