I have to ask what is the beef with avantair? Every company has its flaws. To grow as big as it has in the past 2 years, it must not be that bad ? I have flown for the bottom terrible companys in florida,ie sas, bia... and compared to them avantair is heaven. I have seen this web site get people jobs and other good things, use it for that. you all should try only posting information that you took on first hand, not what your friend said who has only worked for a 121 because from my experience younger 121 aviators dont know a thing about corporate and vise versa.

would you

and when my friends ask me to do something, heck, I'll do it for them. Guess they want everyone to know things aren't quite as kosher as some want to say......

Would you wash and wax their Waco or 182 if they asked you. imp:

I have to ask what is the beef with avantair? quote]


Here's the deal. There are a couple of former employees (one of them a former flight ops manager that quit in disgrace) that are bitter because they felt they didn’t get a fair shake and left the company. They got a fair shake, but chose to believe they were being singled out for no reason. They like to use the board to spread their ill will because nobody else inside the company will give them the right time of day. Most of us in the game know that "pebbles" is either one of them or closely tied to them. Our best guess is that it’s the former manager based on the extreme bitterness. This is evident by the posts, all of the false accusations and "known" information hasn't changed since the time he left in March. They can’t really get new info, because current employees won’t associate with any of them, partly because of their posts on this board but mostly because we enjoy working at Avantair and just get tired of their BS. Avantair is an amazing place to work and yes, there are growing pains. I can tell you though, that this is the place to be right now for to fly in the fractional world. The last six months have seen amazing things happen and it’s only going to get better as the company grows. So, for those of us working at Avantair, there is no beef and we choose to be here because we want to be. If you look at all the negative posters, there are only a specific few and they all have the same twists to them. As I’ve posted before, ignore these folks and look at all the great posts by current employees that work for the company. Those far outweigh the opinions of these select few idiots.

Firstly, I don't work for Avantair but here's what I think. Everybody I have talked to really likes it there. They like the airplane, they like the flying and I have never heard any BS about management or maintenance issues. I don't care where you work, or what you fly, there will always be some maintenance issues. These same issues may not be issues to others because we all have different personal limits and different experiences. As far as management is concerned, who cares? A pilot is a pilot. Of course we all think we know more than management and could run the company better and that everybody should listen to us. Well some pilots run their mouths way too much and I don't blame management for not listening sometimes. Guys like Pebbles ruin the common voice of the pilot and this creates a barrier between us and them. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that Pebbles feels like he was burned by Avantair somehow and maybe 180puke too. Which, by the level of their professionalism on this board, seems like it was more than likely justified. Anyway, thats my 2 pennies. Flame on!
