what was the general consensus about the company!!! from previous employees that is. i.e t&c's, pay, equipment, or is it just ur run of the mill GA out fit.

There are better companies out there to work for.

That's the diplomatic way of putting it

What is the 'general consensus'??

Umm I wouldn't put my dear old Grandma (dead) in one of their busted arse chieftains...

Another crap GA operator, run by a fat slob rubbing himself to the tune of a jet ("oh oh oh we're gonna get one")

Bizzy, you seem to take every opportunity to dump on this company. It would seem you have some history with Eastair? You seem to have formed a very strong opinion between Jan 11 when you didnt know anything, to March 4 where you "know the owner" and "know what he's like". Having read your posts on the matter you seem to say a lot but get very little across and what little you do get across is not very helpful. What do you actually know that you choose not to say?
Getting useful information from you re: Eastair is like pulling teeth :ugh:

Thank you for the time you have taken is combing my posts. You really do have too much time on your hands.

if you wanna get paid and wanna come home safely at night if you want to be told the truth.........look for a different operator.

Don't take my word for it get off your arse go to the airport and ask about them...

I do some casual flying for East Air.

The aircraft are well maintained and the pilots look after them.
The pilots are happy with the rates of pay.
The owner looks after the pilots and respects them.

The passengers like flying with the company.

Overall, it's a good positive culture.

Fission,

Thanks for that, I'm glad to hear its going ok! I flew CCL back in the day when it was owned by Sharp Airlines. Was a great bus back then compared to other PA31s I've flown since - heard it making its way up to TL back when Eastair started up.

Goodluck

Is CCL not being operated by Renaissance anymore then?
