Posted below is the latest from the presumptive leader of the in-house union movement at Flexjet. If anyone has been operating under the assumption that Frank, after having won a representation election, had any intention of actually running a union to represent the pilots, his recent post from oscrewlounge.com should reveal his true intentions. He makes no bones about the fact that this is a “decert”, not an effort to organize an in-house union. He would, instead, like to see us reduced to being at-will employees again.
Next time you see Frank, look him in the eye and ask him if he's OK with the individual derision and infamy he will most assuredly face throughout our industry if he is successful in placing our entire pilot group out in the cold without a union to protect them from one of the most union hating management teams in history. As we know, aviation is a small world.

This is whole decert isn't a vote of confidence in Me or even Kenn Ricci, it's a vote of NO CONFIDENCE in the failed IBT1108. The Union earned this decert by not doing the job they've been payed hard earned dues money to do. THEY have taken money out of checks and yes "food off of pilots tables" for years and delivered nothing in return.
Do you really think 3 guys with a website payed for with beer money have brought the IBT to the point of decert in just a few months? They did this to themselves. The HUNDREDS of pilots who have sent in cards aren't voting for Pedro or Frank or even Kenn, they're voting against a failed Union that hasn't delivered on years of broken promises.
The IBT1108 earned and owns this decert.
