From what I've gathered, he didn't make it through training at a US regional. Paying for a job is the only way at that point.
 
Actually, he did not have to pay for his training at Falcon but I am not defending him. Only correcting a false statement. He did leave out how he failed out of training at Chautauqua. He only got the job at Falcon because the CP is also from the same country I believe. I know, I was in his class. I was going to have to pay for training though (I still can't explain why but I have a good guess) but I got smart and left in the middle of class before I made a huge mistake. Hey, better late than never sometimes.

On another note... GOOD LUCK SPIRIT PILOTS!
 
NO POSTING OF NAMES, or any DIRECT links, especially those that have anyone's name as part of the link address...

We're leaving the links to the Spirit site up, if you want to go there and get more information, you're welcome to, but please do NOT link it directly here. Thank you for your cooperation. Trying to stay as hands-off as possible during all this, but we have to keep the site clear of anything that could pull it into legal trouble.

Thanks for understanding,

So for my own education. If the Falconair pilot refuses to fly can Falcon fire him? If they do will ALPA protect him? I am not trying to stir up a hornets nest I really don't know.
 
I got the same response from him when I blasted him!

Falcon Air isn't unionized. The pilots there are *MOSTLY* former ALPA, Teamsters, etc (highly experienced furloughed or permanently-furloughed (Midwest) pilots from other carriers).

And yes, Florida is an at-will work state; if the Falcon Air pilots refuse to fly, they're risking termination without recourse to grievance. So every Falcon Air pilot who DID refuse to fly those flights deserves our respect and appreciation for risking termination in a TERRIBLE hiring environment to support Spirit pilots.

Those who didn't refuse... well... as a mod, I should just shut up before I say something I shouldn't, even though all of this is my personal opinion and not posting as a mod.
 
Uhmm...no I wasn't the capt. I know the players down in cockroach corner very well, but left that corner of aviation a number of years ago..

No USAPA will support him. They will help him file a RICO lawsuit against all the other pilots of the world who withheld information about how bad scabbing was and how their conspiracy to withhold information lead directly to his becoming a scab.

Sad, but also funny because it would be so true...
 
That FO has obviously refused to fly anymore Spirit flights. That's why Falcon Air isn't taking any more of the Spirit Air trips. Perhaps he's telling the truth and was lied to by dispatch. I'm just sayin'...
