Re: Recollection of the birth of SunAir

Dave -- Thanks for posting this list. I'm saving the list and will do some digging over the holidays to see if I have any communications remaining from the early SunAir days. Back in 2007, I commented that I had sent most of my correspondence stuff to someone and I had hoped the list might jog my me...

Re: Recollection of the birth of SunAir

Marty -- I note that you are NOT SAX008 but SAX054. Surely your number is not that high. I thought you were in at the beginning though we did grow pretty fast when the word got out. Dave -- Do you guys have a list of the names of all the pilots who have flown for SunAir. If so, could you post a list...

Re: Recollection of the birth of SunAir

Waaalllll...I can't believe I'm almost 10 years late in responding to this thread but I have truly enjoyed reading the recollections of early members of SAX. We really had a great thing going on Prodigy and it took a while to get things back on track after the changed from a flat-rate service for $1...

Re: Lunch With Jim Swanson - Early 1990's

Dave -- As I recall we got started six to eight months before the Prodigy debacle but my memory could be a bit foggy. Most of us were flying ATP but we still had some who were flying Flight Simulator. In fact, I think I may have, in the beginning, been using Flight Simulator with an add-on ATC calle...

Re: Lunch With Jim Swanson - Early 1990's

Scorpio -- I truly appreciate your posting, but it now begs the question as to when Sunair was actually formed. I have just assumed that 1992 was correct. However, I remember flying lines as a pilot as far back as 1990 or 1991, maybe even earlier. Sunair ran very successfully on Prodigy for quite so...

Re: Lunch With Jim Swanson - Early 1990's

Rich, Marty, et al -- I thank you so much for posting that photo. I can't believe that, old as I am, I remember more about the circumstances than do you...hee, hee. First, it wasn't lunch, it was breakfast. Second, Jim had not put out the call for a meeting, I had planned on being in the Tampa area ...
