Where is Uncle Gary go?

[Dassault]

See that Gary Hart was fired or resigned from NJA, anyone know where he is going?

 

[CA1900]

See that Gary Hart was fired....

Wow, that's a pretty big assumption to make ...

 

[Q Service]

...or resigned from NJA...

Not sure what he assumed...

Quote it all!

 

[fischman]

Too bad. I had a great deal of respect for Gary. I wish him well.

please tell me your joking, he was a moron at Travel Air

 

[gunfyter]

Don't know about before NJ.

But here he always said the right thing.

"We don't fly broken airplanes, we don't rush, we take the time we need to operate safely, we don't take shortcuts.... etc.." "We don't fly hungry, we don't fly fatigued."

Hmmm.... when someone trys to push you.... You know what... I don't work for you. I work for Gary. Lets call him and see what he says....

As far as I know, he always came up with the right answer.

 

[Mountain Troll]

Wasn't he at BJS/AMR or Flexjet before TA/Options ? I think he was exploring orther optortunities when he (was asked to resign) left both of those jobs.

 

[acaTerry]

I don't know how he was at TA, but I have had nothing but good experiences with him here at NJ.

 

[Cavpilot]

This is truly a loss for NetJets. He may have sent out goofy emails and seemed a little high strung at recurrent, But he always had the right things to say. As far as I know all of his "professional pace" talk was for real. I never met anyone at NetJets that had a problem with the man. I'm scared to death about who might be taking his place permanently. There are a few names that keep me awake at night.

No more invites to his house for Thanksgiving in CMH? Darn...

Note the date on the article in your link. NetJets sent out a memo about Gary's resignation on September 13.

 

[gunfyter]

I hear FLOPS is hiring.

 

[Majik]

To all of you Gary Hart haters, think of this:
He may have quit or been asked to resign because he was always pushing too hard for pilots to take their time and make sure they accomplished all required items before flight, regardless of what scheduling was trying to push.
If that's true, how does his future replacement feel about pilots doing whatever it takes to be safe???
I think we lost a pilot advocate yesterday.

No, we only hire proven failures and frauds.....You people don't know how to hire talent like we do

 

[ce750drvr]

Read his post again. You jumped to quick.

 

[el raton]

Rumor is he's replacing the outgoing prez at Flex. What can we expect?

He means well and is a pretty straight shooter from my interactions with him. He does get fired up and send out whacky emails now and then.

The word I heard is that he was asked to leave after one too many run in's with Magoo.

Who knows who will replace him, but some of the names vying for the gig, keep me up at night also.

Are you serious?

I think that will be good for you.

He knows what legal Rest and Duty means.

Not what one of your guys told me happens to you.

 

[squonk]

I agree that "Just Gary" stood up for us with crew rest, but he was a typical Mgmt hack also. We had a phone conference with him when he tried to get two crews to fly into a NOTAM'd out airfield. After basically drawing a line in the sand, he relented, although grudgingly, to the two crews.

I will say since the contract has been settled, he hasn't seem as "nutty" with the Gary Grams. This may be a case of the devil you know is better than the devil you don't.

Its interesting that dispatch would even release you to a notam'd out field ...How'd they get around that one??

If this is the story I think it is, there is much more to the story than that.

A conversation with the airport manager revealed that after repeated attempts to get the feds to remove the NOTAM, they had not. The airport was indeed open for normal ops, yet NOTAM'ed out for some runway MX that had been completed.

He was willing to go on record as to the airports safety in writing.

Where is Uncle Gary go? I don't know. Where is you go? Where is I go? Where is any of us go?

 

[higgy]

He wasnt fired or asked to resign. He quit!!!!!!!!!!!! The funny thing was he didn't even give any notice. He must of been pissed about somthing. I'm sure he had somthing else lined up!!!!

Hart Attacks

I'm already enjoying the lack of nonsensical "professional pace" CYA emails.

My one direct dealing with the man regarded unpaid overtime due to falsified records. He was hostile. I named him specifically in my ethics report to BH. Eventually, I won that grievance, but to my knowledge no investigation was ever done.

My friends from the old TA tell me of union busting activities performed by GH as they tried to organize.:angryfire

So long "friend".uke:

Don't know, don't care, good ridence, don't let the door hit you on the way out! Some day I will tell you how I really feel.

 

[SDCFI]

Man, GH gets around more than Paris Hilton. He was at Ameriflight when I started there in 03. Put out so many memos I could have wallpapered a small house in just a few months. Also referred to himself as "Darth Vader" at one winter meeting, not sure what that was all about. Can't say I have a strong opinion of him either way, but why does he jump around so much? CEO's I can understand, but middle management (or whatever his title is) should be more stable I would think.

 

[acaTerry]

Hmmm...a few Gary haters here? I had him stand up for us a couple of times when scheiss hit the fan over perf issues or food denial.

If Im not mistaken I was at RTA in 2000 and GH was there and when the merger happened he was there as well. Kinda hard to remember but......
