Just out of curiosity what kind of QOL, pay, and schedule Focus has? What about being in business 6 months from now on?

I did a search and found some old stuff but it seems pretty outdated. Does anyone have anything current on the company?

 

[pilotgolfer]

We had a number of guys from ATA that went there about a year ago. I had called one of them and he got back to me about a month later. He apologized and said he had been on the road for the past 40 days. He quit soon after that.

 

[Hocus Focus]

I dont believe anyone has been on the road for 40 days since initial cadre days.

I just spole with a Focus pilot and he warned me to tell my friends to stay away. It is not good there right now. He did not elaborate but he was not happy

I've heard that a lot of Focus people are sitting at home wondering when the paychecks are gonna stop.

Last I heard, two planes working, but all sorts of deals on the horizon???? The -300 sits a lot at MIA....nice paint job. Atlas has looked at it, not sure their intentions?

Seen one of their planes in Amsterdam just "Focusing" on the hangar for weeks on end. Thought this place was falling apart. I was suprised to see their ad on 350.

I thought the 300 was EX-Atlas??

Yes, it is ex-Atlas. The way the military flying is going, they may be considering leasing it back?

 

[Hocus Focus]

You guys are too much!!!

Still nobody has said anything aout QOL, schedule at Focus? The only known facts about Focus are people in furlough and not willing to come back, people leaving faster than they can hire, and company leaded by scabs.

I'm really curious...If you don't know what the QOL at Focus is like, how do you know they are full of scabs? With a few young exceptions at the time (1980 - 1992), the majority of the "scabs" are over 60, now.

I'm in MIA, right now. Yes, it is one of our -300's. I don't know the big picture, but we are helping them with noise issues with the GE's in Paris. Like I said, I don't know the big picture of why we are helping them, other than we sold them the airplane.

Are you sure it was sold? It has been mentioned that Atlas has 5 dry leased planes. Two to GSS, but where are the other three?

 

[GCD]

Well, that could be the answer why we are helping them, if it is dry-leased to them.

I honestly don't know anything, but what I hear around here.
