Vans out of LGB?

[jskibo]

I have a great view of RWY30 out my office window. Been seeing a lot of Caravan flights, late morning to early afternoon, departing LGB. No markings that I can see, just white, some blue.

Just curious as to who runs those operations?

Thanks! That makes sesne, I see their DC-3's making quite a few runs. Real joy to watch those take off!

Nice P51 parked over there most days as well.

The dealer and maintenance facility are there, so there are a lot of Caravan ops into Long Beach.

Well only 1100 more hours and I can cross over from supporting A/C to flying frieght.

Bit of a large paycut, but seems better than 8 hours of meetings and "Why don't we have that proposal on contract yet" questions.....
