Evergreen has a TA

[Nevergreen]

So have any EZ guys come out of the closet yet and announced publicly they are in the next Atlas class? And if so, who?

What's the latest on the T/A? Any chance of it passing? Maybe Del will throw you some crumbs if it looks destined to fail.

The first -400 is due anytime, any updates?

 

[Nevergreen]

Del will never throw us any crumbs. He is a despicable POS. He takes out all the profits, takes all the equity out of the airline AND THEN he cries poor.

ALPA is no better. They took dues from us for 2.5 years and do absolutely nothing to help us. They fell for his line of B.S. . They actually sent us an email confirming the airline has been profitable for the last few years, but also claim that we should give him this status quo financing to help him get new financing. .

What a pile of crap. Del gets to continue screwing the crewmembers with the lowest wages in the industry and ALPA keeps collecting the dues for the next few years and providing no service to us. Well, except a magazine that isn't even as useful as toilet paper.So for the next 2-5 years he will get to continue feeding at the trough and ALPA gets to collect dues and the only losers in this situation are us, the crewmembers.

And the BofA 400F is still not on the property yet. More management lies.

Any idea when EIA is going to start hiring again?

There is a class of 4 starting 5/10. I think there are about 6 guys left in the pool so I imagine they will have to do more interviews this month. There are perhaps a dozen people that have left for Atlas or will leave shortly.

Thanks for the reply.

 

[propsarebest]

Looks like we will be hiring till the end of the year or so. Training can only do 4 people a month however...

Props,

I humbly disagree.

This POS TA is going to go down. Del will go beserk. I expect serious recriminations to the flight crewmembers. I would not want to be a junior F.O. here this year. We will not see anymore 400's this year.

In fact, Del will not get his refinancing either. Del has run afoul of the loan covenants, and has proven to be a bad debt risk.

The only expansion at Evergreen will be in Del's pet projects.

It is unfortunate that Del is more interested in his crappy musuem and his waterpark than he is in running the airline.

I heard one of the 4 has decided to take an interview at Atlas instead of starting Monday.

Nevergreen,

I don't know why the MEC is even bringing this TA out for a vote I'm a new guy here and won't have a vote, but that email sent out by the MEC announcing the TA made me mad. They seemed to have been doing all the companies propaganda for them. It seems like the MEC was easily outsmarted by better negotiators. If Del really needs these 400s, the Evergreen pilots will never have more leverage than they have now. You can't operate a single 400 freighter and have any efficiency. You need at least 3 of them to make it work.

The airline is financing all of Del's pet projects and I think everybody knows it. This TA had better be voted down by over 95% and then Del will have to blow the dust off his wallet and sweeten the deal.

Just my opinion...and I've been wrong before!

That guy just made the best decision of his career!

Another person on this forumn confirmed for me that Del is making these guys sign 2 year contracts. No reputable airline does that. Just further proof how far and fast that Evergreen is sinking.

The new 400 is flying now. A truly great airplane. The LCF pilots are running like rats off a sinking ship, to Atlas. They are already short on 400 pilots thanks to our great leader. The 200 is on top the waterpark and the T/A should go down in flames. Just about normal for around here.
