Think we have a few posters fromt he area.
Pretty much, you start on the ramp they have 4 rampies waiting atm work your way up.
310, navajo and DC-3, bt-67. So you could try to talk to Manny if you have a Valid PPC maybe he'd squeeze you in..

I thought the BT-67 (turbine DC-3 for those that don't know) was a short term trial thing. Are they still using it?

I don't think so. I believe it was ferriied recently from the far north where it had been damaged and/or sat for a length of time, but I don't believe it was "balled up".

I hear it's a good company but I also heared (last year) that it was taking 3-4 years to get off the ramp.

The bt67 was in antarctica and got picked up and slammed by the wind while tied down. It's back on the ramp in YOO now, with a few bumps and bruises. The ramp period may be quite extensive.

Thanks for the info. Too bad about the long haul on the ramp though.

I have a friend who's 'just about to get online', who put in about 1.5 years or so waiting for the spots to open up.
