Sad to see people already calling it a 'Cowboy operation', quite the opposite when you have the facts. Most of the Engineers are ex-Ansett, many of the pilots have retired from Legacy Airlines and at any given time the average hours on the flight deck are over 40,000. We fly NDB approaches and circle off them at night in remote Pacific locations in all kinds of weather flying a fleet where not one aircraft is the same configuration. I've never worked with a more professional and capable bunch of people. We also don't call ourselves 'drivers' we call ourselves pilots.
