Still nobody has said anything aout QOL, schedule at Focus? The only known facts about Focus are people in furlough and not willing to come back, people leaving faster than they can hire, and company leaded by scabs.
 
I'm really curious...If you don't know what the QOL at Focus is like, how do you know they are full of scabs? With a few young exceptions at the time (1980 - 1992), the majority of the "scabs" are over 60, now.

I'm in MIA, right now. Yes, it is one of our -300's. I don't know the big picture, but we are helping them with noise issues with the GE's in Paris. Like I said, I don't know the big picture of why we are helping them, other than we sold them the airplane.

Are you sure it was sold? It has been mentioned that Atlas has 5 dry leased planes. Two to GSS, but where are the other three?
 
Well, that could be the answer why we are helping them, if it is dry-leased to them.

I honestly don't know anything, but what I hear around here.
 
354 is owned by Cargo Air Leasing a subsidiary of Omega Air Holdings parent company of Focus, QOL: 19 days with two travel included most lines are two weeks, no pilots on furlough only FE's(approx 12). 4 jets: 2 in Europe 1 in MIA 1 in C check. Long term contract out of MIA for 2 to start in Aug. Pay can be seen on airlinepilotpay.com. New management in HDQ (great guys no scabs). Most guys that have left have moved on to UPS, Jetblue, ATA recall, AA recall, Delta recall, one or two to EOS, Virgin America. Focus is currently evaluating a new "type" addition.
 
If any Focus guys are willing to discuss Focus, please PM me. I am scheduled for an interview next week, and I would like to talk to a couple of line pilots for the real story.

Absolutely sure it was sold. Actually 3 were sold, 2 went to SAI and 1 (354) went to FKS. I can't imagine AAWH wanting to buy ("buy back") another a Classic.

Could you name just one scab at FKS? There was one and he's long gone :D

T&Cs have changed and should be updated by now on airline pilot central. The management team here is new and pilot friendly. None of the "original team" is left.

Funny thing is each one of your "known facts" is wrong. HAHA. How about actual facts next time?
