Any info on Platt Electric Supply's flight department?

Does anyone here know anything about Platt Electric Supply's flight department? Talked with any of their Pilots on the road, is it a good job? etc...
Thankyou for any information!

I have heard all part time pilots c500 or c550 and a King Air. Mainly day trips in Northwest.

All contract pilots is my understanding. No employee pilots.

Correct on the contactors.

Sure thing, but do they employ pilots??

Flightcraft still managing their ops? Nothing like dragging down the industry with only offering contracting positions for a 2 plane flight department.

Is there a reason why they only use contractors? Is it due to cost?

Contract pilot-well that would not work for me. It would be great for a retired airline pilot or a low time pilot looking to build flight time, or someone who is independently wealthy and just wants to fly for fun and to make a little extra cash. I, on the other hand, am a professional career minded pilot who actually does this for a living, and I have a family to support. Sure, I understand why they might only use contract pilots- to save money. Best of luck to them. They won't be getting a resume from me.

How 'bout 15+ aircraft and only contracted pilots? There's one out there.

They have already hired. I was at Simuflite last night and they have
someone in class.
