SkykingC310 is on a distinguished road
Yes indeed! I worked on the ramp at (KHIO) Hillsboro, Oregon for over a year. I started at an FBO pumping fuel and ended up working the ramp for a corporate shuttle before moving out of the area. It was the funnest job I've ever had and miss many things about it, 'cept the money. Didn't pay very well, but it was worth it to me for all the contacts I made and the neat things I've had the opportunity to do.

Right seat in a:

Falcon 50 (Soloflex)
Embraer ERJ-135 (Intel)
Beech 1900D (Intel)
Piper Aerostar (Caddy Car Wash)
Cessna Caravan (Herzog-Meier)
...etc.
And left seat in lots of less expensive aircraft.

This is a space I've created to share flying stories and learn things from each other. It's brand new, so there's not much going on yet. Please be one of the first to introduce yourself. I plan on documenting each of these flights on that space with further details about the flight.

Anyway, lots of great times as a ramp rat.
