Title: fargo fleet
Post by: EHM-0990 Dick on September 11, 2004, 06:09:04 pm

hello I am dirk, the flyboer,
this is my first reaction to our VA,  and I have to say that I was very surprised to find out how young you all are.
I am 55 years old and wondering how many of our pilots have past the fifty??
But thatr is not why I call.
I am a turboprop flyer, and the only cargoplane is the rayher slow flying SHORTS.   Are there maybe more candidates for a bigger, faster cargo prop plane.

Have FUN flying.

I think its because they start at class 3 planes, but really there more like class 1 planes. That what I think it is. Not sure.

Amazed theres a 50ish old person flying.:o;D

You have to advance in rank to get to the bigger and faster planes, sorry but evreyone goes throught it. I'm 14, I dont know if we have any pilots avobe 50, I think you can check that in each of the hub's statistics I think.

Cheers,

Alex;)

Are you talking about a replacement for the Shorts 360, or you talking about adding more turboprop planes to the fleet?
If you talking about the last, I am almost sure that, that isn't going to happen.

I'm over 30 so going to 50. I also do like turbo props and would love to have a bigger one in the fleet. I guess you have to talk to Paul the manager of Eurocargo to propose the idea

Sorry Dirk didnt look to see you rank, if you are talking about a replacement for the Shorts... I dont think there can be more than 1 Turboprop plane in the Cargo fleet, however remember this is cargo, short cargo routes are usually done by trucks. It is normal though for long trips to be handled by aircraft. Paul has the last word of course.

I don't think any planes will be added to the Cargo fleet anytime soon cause it already boosts quite a fair range of planes.....but who knows paul may add one more just yet ;)
