Landed just in time to pull into the run up area, shut down, hop out, and shoot Great Lakes departing for Visalia, CA. Great Lakes currently flies the 1900 from MCE to LAS and VIS, previously they flew ONT-MCE-VIS-ONT. Since then, the ONT hub was shut down and ZK decided to focus on LAS and LAX on the West Coast to serve EAS markets. Took 4 trips to MCE to finally catch these guys, and from the looks on their faces, they liked my Mario pajama bottoms.
