Reminiscing about better days. In 1995 my first flying job that wasn& #39;t flight instructing was flying cancelled checks and Airborne Express freight in this Cessna 402. Callsign was Pelican 112, and flew from EWN-PGV-RDU and back every night.

It paid $90 per night which, after being a CFI, I thought was the most money anybody could make. Ever. Didn& #39;t even know how I would spend that much! I took a pay cut when I went to the commuters.
