how would you deal with this situation

[ohoh]

pilot advertises a trip for pickup and promises to pay $x.

you pick up and now he refuses to pay...

 

[brokeflyer]

you sue him.....you take his advertisement (proof that he asked you to do it) then you take FAA traffic records that show your aircraft making that flight. FAA records will show who was PIC of that flight.

You win.

If that dont work then you fck him up.

lesson learned, always get money first...and sign him up for every magazine that is left on the airplane......that will learn him

You're obviously strapped for cash, but you could hire someone to "take care of the problem."

Do you have proof he offered to pay for this trip? Do the pilots have a forum at your place? I'd post this and reveal his name. I'd also post the trip you took from him on the bulletin board in the crew lounge with how much he was suppose to pay you and tell everyone to becareful of him. I know this all may sound childish but do it anyway.

i agree, "put him on blast".

Step 1 - Check his schedule to see when he is off.
Step 2 - On a day off when he is flight time legal, check open time
Step 3 - If an out and back is posted in open time, call crew scheduling and tell them you are the offending pilot.
Step 4 - Pick up said out an back pretending to be said offender.
Step 5 - Kick back, relax and enjoy not having to work today because you deserve it.

Put a lien on his house.

Classy guy. He's got MGT written all over him!

 

[Raoul Duke]

put his pic on a flier that you post to the crew room wall that calls him out for being a cheap bastard

 

[LearLove]

Pad lock his flight kit to the rack in the crewroom. Put a note on it that the combination will cost him how ever much he was supposed to pay.

take a sh!t in his flight bag also.

First, you get his name and address, then go to the post office and fill out the form for where you want his mail to go.

Or you could drain the oil out of his car when he's on a trip, mail him a five pound box of dog sh!t, nail his wife, etc...


Use your imagination.

 

[instructordude]

Nothing. Forget about it.

 

[threegreen]

Kidnap his first born and hold a ransom for the amount owed.

I think the severity of punishment is directly related to how much cash he promised to pay. I also agree with the padlocking his flight bag to the rack with a note while posting a note on the pilot web of your company.
