My thoughts

You forgot to include that relaxing the throat exercises are highly recommended for successful candidates. Once selected does one get issued an official set of kneepads?

No, you bring your own knee pads and if selected you will be reimbursed after filing an expense report!

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

Uncle Kenn belongs in a rubber room, not a cockpit

Sounds like the start of a B scale. They upgrade into the new equipment at the FO payscale. Thats a pretty big hit for the guys at the top of the FLEX seniority list, but then again, Uncle always wanted to return to a merit based system.

A fifth stripe will look just fabulous with that purple tie!

The G positions are interview for your job (again), dedicated crew positions. They pay a basic salary, which you can increase through an undefined bonus system. Be advised, you will lose vacation and days off. Vacation is two (2) weeks and your days off depend on utilization. There will be five pilots per airplane. One "manager", one "assistant manager", and three "captains". If you believe the "manager" is going to fly more than just to stay current, I would like to sell you some land at 60N30W...the three "captains" will be flying 20+ days a month and the bonus they earn will be split by the two "managers". No Thanks.

Dedicated crews are another great idea thought up by those that don't fly for those that do.

When the idea fails, again, because it's a just a bad plan or no credible crews volunteer, they'll think up some new great plan and we'll all just watch and wonder "what were they thinking?".

Is it true one of your pilots was almost fired for critisizing the new uniform? What's the story on this?
