I checked the Chief Pilot's qualifications....he seems like the real deal complete with a current class one, ATP, and several type ratings including for the 747.

He is real, currently flying 747s in Asia.

Not sure Family Airlines is real or will ever be however.
Same scam in the early 90s: The "CEO" took hundreds of thousands of $$ from desperate pilots trying to buy a job.
Before anybody turned a wheel, the whole thing fell apart and nobody got refunded a dime.

Dammit! Comments have been disabled from that post. They are no fun.


Any guesses on their hourly rates? Lower than skybus? When the world economy picks back up and oil goes back up to 90 a barrel, I'll give em 8 months tops.

I saw all this stuff when I was unemployed back in 2006. When I started at Allegiant in LV I was interested in driving by the Corp headquarters to see if is a building or a used car lot. Anyone actually check it out???

Family Airlines Incorporated
6135 S Rainbow Blvd., Suite 100
Las Vegas, NV 89118

Someone still in Vegas has to stop by there!!!
 
Correction.....

I'm not sure but I think Family Airlines was the name of the outfit Frank Lorenzo tried to start in the early 90's. ALPA took him to court and he was banned from starting or running any airline in the U.S. Anyone recall that?

Lorenzo tried to start up "Friendship Airlines" out of BWI with money from the State of Maryland. BWI was once know as "Friendship Field".
 
That's the worst application I have ever seen. Don't get scamed. Keep your $50.

What a joke of an airline. The name sucks. TOOOOO FUNNY

Anything located on "Rainbow Blvd." sounds a little sketchy to me.......!

Protect your assets with a Nevada Corporation (all types) or LLC (Limited Liability Company).

I also do the latest Series LLC. and have hundreds of aged and shelf corporations available at wholesale prices.

I have nearly 40 years experience, my prices are the lowest and my personal service is the best.

Please call my office for any questions at:

How in gods name are they going to get a -400 into SAN? If trying to scam people atleast get the initial BS correct/
Click to expand...

It will fit - saw and AN-124 in there not too long ago.

BA used to operate regular service in there before they started getting the 777. And NWA - or Northwelda or Del Norte or whoever they are now - has been known to fly the -400 in there occasionally on charters.

Still this "Family" thing does not quite pass the smell test just yet.......

It's going to take a lot of $299 filings to fund an airline...

You're way too optimistic. My money goes to that they will never even start proving runs......or even get an airplane. For that matter, I wouldn't bet that they will even get manuals approved. What a joke of an idea for an airline.
 
Based on the CEO's past history, it looks like he rented an office. Now he plans to make his money by selling fake applications to unemployed pilots for an airline that does not exist. Once the applications stop coming in, he will make up an excuse as to why the airline will not start even though he never actually did anything towards actually starting an airline.

Easy way to make a buck if you can get away with it.... i hope a lot of pissed off pilots are able to hang his ass when things never launch.
 
Makes me physically sick to look at that website..

Scam artist.. Send his ass back to prison
