Aerocontractors are the way to go. Well maintained Dash 8's, beer and sandwiches, reasonably on time, no probs experienced so far with many LOS-PHC-LOS sectors getting grounds ops setup for the wooly pullies.
A colleague was on the flight deck jumpseat waiting for departure back to London out of LOS. They were holding just short of the runway for an arrival. Suddenly, the Captain was radioing to the effect of 'inbound aircraft - go around, go around'. It transpired it was a Bellview 737 attempting a landing with no gear.................Doncha just love it!
