ATAcademy Orlando Williams Update

[Long Time Gone]

Someone requested that this be posted here as well. It's already in the Regionals side.

Since quite a few regional pilots (and now major pilots) attended ATAcademy in Orlando, this post fits in here. I'm sure a mod will move it soon enough to the "Flight Training" board.

Just heard from a little birdie that Scott Williams, one of the dipXXXX twins and former "President" of Airline Training Academy in Orlando is now a Gate Agent for AirTran in RSW. He did a real good job of emptying the trash in the 737.

Talk about irony. I wonder if AirTran knows that he and his family stole millions from students???? Obviously, he was never convicted. Shame.

I never went there but remember when it shut down. Before that I was working for R.A. at Air Orlando and thought that it was impossible for someone to be more crooked than him.

This family of thieves should've been banned from the entire aviation industry. One of the crooks was Rob Williams of ATA Airlines. Anyone know where he is now?

Don't know him.

I met a gate agent at RSW - he mentioned that he used to be at ATA and said something about losing his medical.
I beleive he said he had his med back and was expecting an interview.

With whom?

AirTran...

His name is on the list of people to get interviewed. More info needed about this person. What was the deal at ATAcadamy and what was his roll?

Check your PMs. Rob was a Vice President (mostly recruiting) and his wife was the Vice President of Finance. His brother Scott was President, and Scott's twin Jeff was ex-Comair and Vice President of Maintenance.

What happened - for those of us who don't know the story...

Google it.

Rob is the gate agent at RSW, not Scott.

My contact said that Scott is a gate agent, saw the ID himself. Fat, ugly, sweaty, etc. Rob may also be a gate agent, since he also lives in Ft Myers according to the FAA certification site.
