Gulfstream, Flexjet enter into agreement for 50 aircraft!

[dime line]

Has there ever been someone in management you didn't hate?

It sounds like you have issues with management as a whole, not just the people.

At FLOPS.... No they all should be replaced

Flexjet pilots under your few page work agreement, still believe that they can't / haven't / will not change anything?

1) Confirmed, Deanna White is gone replaced with Mike Silvestro as the CEO.
a. All of the management that you have known and trusted are out. Did they not try to sale the fact that your management would remain intact to make you feel safe? Sorry for the inconvenience but we changed our mind about that.

2) Already junior Flight Options pilots are operating your biggest aircraft ahead of you with seniority protected above and beyond yours.

3) Your do not disturb or call agreement GONE.

4) Junior Flight Options pilots headed your way with the promise of Ken Ricci that they will be in the Lear for just six months and will be transitioned into the G as PIC ahead of all FlexPilots. Dedicated Flight Option crews with seniority protected above and beyond yours.

5) EMB-300 now to be marketed with the Flex store front painted in the new OneSky colors operated solely with Flight Options crews and aircraft will remain on Options certificate.

6) The entire company headquarters will be located in the Flight Options facility in Cleveland this is a fact just you wait and see. The only facility that will remain in TX will be possibly a MX base. Im sorry didn't they also lead you to believe that things would remain in TX? Sorry about your luck.

I can keep going but this is plenty for now and for all you non believers please don't take my word for it call Mike Silvestro and ask him, after all he is your new CEO.

Wake Up Flexjet Pilots.

You wander why I left? it was a question of ethics

Pilots friend. That's a lot of change even for KR He knows that will piss off the flex guys and that's last thing he wants right now. Can you confirm your source???

Nothing announced here but that doesn't mean it's not true OR like most things at FJ lately, half true.

 

[ThePilotsFriend]

Like I said don't take my word for it call your new CEO and ask him.

All my statements are correct.

It was Sheeringa and his management style, along with his minions, who saw to it FlOps got the union it deserved. Not Ricci.

I like to consider the Sheeringa period an interlude of tyranny between Ricci's first and second campaigns of terror.

I get it. But the fact remains: if not for that interlude of Sheeringa tyranny, the IBT would not be representing FlOps pilots today

Pure speculation. You can tell pilots that they will be the best paid in the industry, but after so many years, you begin to think you were mislead.

Sheeringa was Kenn's henchman who RIF'ed his "most expensive employees" (people with expensive illnesses or had family members with expensive illnesses and strong union supporters who were forcing management to comply with regulations they had flouted from the beginning of his first reign of terror). Kenn was an owner and member of the Board of Directors of FLOPS when these pilots were fired. If it weren't for the Teamsters, those pilots wouldn't have been brought back and made whole. Kenn did not want them back but knew it was the only way that he could save his company after he and his cronies were made to realize that they had made a huge mistake.

Essentially, when Sheeringa's job was played out, Kenn gave him a pat on the butt, said "Nice game" and sent him on his way to Signature with a letter of recommendation.
