Words of a Scab.....

[Crzipilot]

I don't care who you are. With any amount of time in aviation, especially at the point of being able to fly larger jet airplanes, you got an idea of what's going on in labor. Especially working in south florida, where I'm sure the goings on of Spirit was fairly well publicized..... Another board posted a link to the guys face book account, and I guess some people couldn't resist sending some notes of "encouragement" to the fine aviator...... His response though is classic scab......On the other board, someone mentioned one of his references might be listed on the Master List.....how fitting.


I am sorry that I crossed the picked line. I was pressured into it by my company. I also did not understand the implications. Right after I came back I called Falcon Air crew scheduling, and told them that I did not want to do this anymore. If there where to be any consequences for the decision not to fly anymore, then so be it.

Furthermore I contacted XXXXXXX, the Spirit Airlines ALPA strike coordinator in Ft. Lauderdale to explain to him that I made a mistake. I do support your cause. I offered him that I would want to walk the picket line in support of the Spirit Air pilots at the airport. He appreciated my offer, but advised me not to go because of possible confrontations.

Again, I am truly sorry for my actions and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

Respectfully,

Does this guy hold an executive BPR position in CLT with USAPA? They have no problems letting scabs run their union.

I am thinking you are the FO. This is only one reason why you never cross the picket line. I could go on and on about this subject, but just don't do it!

Uhmmm...no I'm not the f/o.....that's a letter from one of them....

 

[Raoul Duke]

were you the captain?

 

[T B O N E]

Thats about the weakest resume I've ever seen!

 

[Rez O. Lewshun]

He was just participating in the free market.....

 

[CaptSeth]

To get a job at Falcon Air Express, he, like many others, had to pay for their own training. All in all, scabbing is pretty consistent behavior, considering. Type specific PFT....

 

[Skippy]

someone call his references and ask WTF would you be associated with this dude?

 

[Captain Jeff]

carnival was "pay for training" too. It looks like this guy pays a lot to work for a company.

 

[jumppilot]

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.

 

[sayrejm]

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!
