Thought I saw/heard a Flight Options GIV the other day. Just looked it up in Flightaware and seems to confirm it.

So, what's the deal? Do you contractually have to hold onto one aircraft for certain owners? Does it fly much? Have other former owners bounced over to the Legacy? I presume the most senior pilots at FLOPS are still on it.

Whatever happened to the 2 female pilots that taxiied one Legacy into the other Legacy at CGF?

Rumor was that a CP had carnal knowledge of one of them and she was back online right away......

The aircraft is K.R.'s personal aircraft that is coming on our certificate. It is flown by his pilots. As for the other GIV's we keep hearing rumors and seeing little signs but no official announcement yet.

That is Kenn Ricci's personal aircraft, we don't have any more GIV owners. Not sure why it is using an Options call sign... must be a charter, but it isn't being flown by options pilots. Just one more example of why the pilots need a contract

Yes, they both still work for options, but the PIC was busted back to SIC for a year. As for the "Carnal Knowledge" rumor, I won't even address that.

Every OPT181 trip you see is indeed a charter, but maybe not a "sub" charter. They could be hauling Flight Options owners. Whomever they're flying, it is uplift that should be flown by one of our aircraft with our pilots. Rumor has it that he's going to limit the charter flying to 40 hrs/mo. We'll see. Even if this holds true, it is still 40 hrs/mo of flying being taken away from our work group. This is a very bad precedent that is being set, and just another example of KCR thumbing his nose at both the union and his pilots.
 
Yep..Just as I been saying all along..KR is laughing at the Flops union..He slaps them in the face and they stand there and say " Thankyou sir may have another" PATHETIC UNION LEADERSHIP

Dude you just don't get it, what is the union leadership to do? They can't just stamp their feet, Its in the pilots hands themselves, So your "Pathetic union leadership" statement needs to be thrown in the faces of the guys that are not supporting, and those who lie about their status within the union.

We the pilots give the UNION LEADERSHIP THE AMMO THEY NEED, not the other way around.
 
Shanes,

Of course without any knowledge of what our "Pathetic Union Leadership" has negotiated in our now complete scope article, you really are lacking the big picture, aren't you? BTW everyone knows who you are. You might notice the conspicuous lack of responses your posts generate. No one respects the opinions of someone who would rat out a fellow pilot.

BTW a little bird told me our "Pathetic Union Leadership" has already arranged the return of several of our hostages. So stick that in your pipe...

Oh really HOG..Your scope cause is complete?????? So are you saying your Union negotiated to have non options pilots flying options trips???..I guess your leadership is worst than I thought..You follow blindly Hog..Thats what Ricci is hoping for..The blind wont see it coming when he gets that union of the property cause they were to incompetent to play hardball..There so worried about being politically correct while there being laughed at by management..

Scope in not in force until the TA is ratified and the CBA takes effect.
