Glad you're happy there - I was too although as others have said the rostering was harsh on the Q400 in my early days due the lates to earlies.

Brilliant people, brilliant training, approachable management, superb locations and the prospect of an Embraer and excellent 5/5 part time roster pattern too if you can get it. If I hadn't been hoofed off the Embraer due to restructuring I probably would have stayed there my whole career - many do and I don't blame them.

I spent 7 very happy years at Flybe and still miss it despite moving on to shiny jets at a Legacy carrier.

Nice to find a company with such a positive culture. I was always very vocal - critical but constructive on their in house discussion board and never suffered any repercussions from management even when I was quite critical of them. Needless to say I wouldn't dream of doing that where I am now, you'd be very quickly beheaded!
