No, I flew for a now bankrupt typical pt135 freight company (minimal maintenance, minimal pay and ca$h your check, don't deposit it) called Express Airways. We hauled all of our stuff out of Opa Locka, FL to the Islands. The farthest south we went was the DR, Haiti and Jamaica. I met some guys later on in my career that used to fly DC-3s for Four Star. I loved flying out in the islands tho, you got to see all kinds of historic round engine airplanes working day in and day out.

On a side note, do you fly a Dalton that is all flamed on the prop, wheel pants and helmet head?
