Air Wisconsin Pilots Withdraw from ASAP Program, Citing Management Program Breach
BLOOMINGTON, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pilot leaders of Air Wisconsin Airlines Corporation (AWAC) will no longer support or participate in the airline’s Aviation...
I see it as the truth hurts. I love the cover with the airplane with the peeling paint. Many of our group is tired of the abuse and mistreatment. Yet JR keeps saying we are too expensive and overpaid. Like one of the articles says, try feeding a family of 5 on a 5th year FO's pay. Since they do...
I see the company pulled the ARW ALPA Wiss Key magazine out of all V-Files. They claimed it was propaganda. What do they call their In Touch with Air Wisconson, gospel? Good thing I got mine before they did. After reading it and seeing the front cover, I can see why they did this.
THE TRUTH HURTS.
Thanks. Although I really did not deserve it.
What do you think of JB being our next MEC chair? I had no idea of what he has on his plate and still finds time to do what he does and as good as he does. You know, the situation with his son and last year with his mother. Yet he doesn't show any...
We vote for LEC REPS and the LEC REPS vote for the MEC officers. I had thought of running for FO REP, but the REP in there is too popular and has done a far better job than what I could have ever done. I know I bashed him before, but when he saved my neck from disciplinary action, I had to...
I know I b-tch and moan on here from time to time, but this is a serious post for Air Wisconsin pilots.
Next month our MEC will be electing new officers. All Air Willy pilots, any thoughts who they should elect?
I think we should all contact our REPS and tell them who they should consider.
I am going to chime in here. I know many have bashed me for my posts, but at this point I do not care whether you do or don't.
What has happened to our profession? We destroyed it. WE ARE OUR OWN WORST ENEMIES!!! We stab each other in the back and show zero unity. "Wear your hats for unity." Oh...
Oh Please. Air Wisconsin management threatens you if you call in sick or fatigued. They threaten you if you try to refuse a junior manning assignment. Our planes are filthy and we have many pissed off and angry pilots here. We operate in the Northeast and we can not seem to handle irregular ops...
This is BS. I am not anti semitic, but if Christians have to work on Christmas and Easter and Sundays, then there is no reason Jews can't work on thier Sabbath, Or holidays. I know several Jewish pilots who work Saturdays, do not keep kosher and work on Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, Succoth...
First of all, I do not think Captain Chris has the b*lls to tell me this to my face. This is why he posted it on a message board. Second, my big frustrations are over the filthy cockpits and constant breaking down of the airplanes.
I could not make it to work this past Saturday due to the snow...
I have been here a litle more than four years. I am stuck as an FO with no relief in sight. When I first got here. I was amazed there were no MELs on the planes. And they would use MELs to get the planes into Mx bases and get them cleared. That is no longer the case and many of our planes have...
Unfortunately, we are our own worst enemies. We will stab each other in the back for a job or advancement. I remember the Pay For Training epidemic in the 90's. there was no shortage of pilots willing to do this. There is no shortage of pilots willing to fly for $18,000 a year.
Trust me, if they...
Why do people want to break down the doors to work here? We have no future after 2015 when our agreement with US Air runs out.
Also this past weekend, amidst the snowstorm, many of us could not get to work and we were forced to talk to a flight manager who yelled at us, called us unprofessional...
