AIR, Inc. will cease operations
effective 2/13/2009. ​

It has been an honor and a privilege to serve you during the past 20 years. However, the current status of the airline industry and the economy has made our business unsustainable, and we are closing.
We have made arrangements with FltOps.com to provide services at no cost to all current AIR, Inc. members or subscribers for the duration of their current membership or subscription. Enrollment in this special offer ends on April 15, 2009.
You will be required to enter a credit card to activate your FltOps membership, but it will not be charged until your current membership expires, and then only if you do not cancel your FltOps membership. You need to register for your new membership with FltOps.com and establish a new username and password for the FltOps.com Web site.
FltOps.com offers a valuable Web-based pilot career information service and a nation-wide job fair program. You will also be able to dial 800 Jet-Jobs (538-5627) to reach FltOps in the future after a short period of time to transfer the number. U.S. mailing address is FltOps.com, 803 Hermitage Drive, Suite 402, Florence, AL 35630. Fax: 404-935-9644. FltOps can be reached at 888 Left-Seat (533-8732) and their Web site is www.FltOps.com Email to [email protected].
When your current AIR, Inc. membership expires your card will be charged $4.95 each month unless you cancel your service with FltOps.com. If you have a union sponsored membership other than ALPA the process will be the same at the end of your current term. (EXCEPTION - ALPA members with association paid membership will not be charged automatically starting at their expiration date, but must renew to continue with FltOps services.)
Free career counseling will still be available to AIR, Inc. members from 10-6, M-F Eastern time at 877 334-2939 toll free, 678 883-5620, or [email protected] for the term of your AIR, Inc. membership. Please provide your account number (phone number), counseling code, or the name on your account to receive your free counseling services. If we are not able to answer your call personally please leave a message with a good contact number and we will call you back the same day.
Resume customers will continue to be served by our resume staff through a new company KitDarby.com at phone: 678 618-8116, fax: 678 603-2580 or email to [email protected].
The current Web site www.jet-jobs.com will remain available to members or newsletter and magazine subscribers for the length of your AIR, Inc. membership or subscription. The Web site will not be updated in the future. The final newsletter will be posted on 2/11/2009.
No products or services will be available from AIR, Inc. in the future.
Keep your airspeed up,

Heh right after ALPA hands out memberships...the place closes...

 

[FR8mastr]

I dont understand how this could happen. The huge pilot shortage is just around the corner!

 

[COOPERVANE]

I heard that all those pilots hired just after Vietnam are going to start to retire in 5 years..........................................................................No?

 

[SBD]

Just think of all the a-holes who actually believed Mr. Darby and thought "I could do this!"

 

[Browntothebone]

How will you all ever make it to a major now?

 

[wooferdog]
