Couple of mechanics in the binghampton area stated that they had heard (or had a dream) that MS is on his way out. (If that is the only TRUE part of this rumor it is great news!) Second part was that KR will be coming back in some form with Mercury / Garrett / and of course...the Carlyle Group behind him. Supposedly this change would take place on or about middle of April. Guess he sold one or two of Corporate Wings FBO's to get some cash rollin.

Just thought I would take my part in the sewing circle!

But would this change anything? I get the feeling that we are headed for 15 domicile and flex schedules for everyone no matter what.
 
Yeah this was probably the 'pre-announcement' deal... Do all our dirty work so we don't look so bad when we take over. Maybe even make a couple of changes that we will change back so we look good and they will work for us!
 
Just heard Scott Link and Dave Davies turned in their resignations. That was verified by dispatch.


Rumor has is Sheeringa is going too. That of course is only a rumor, but from the same source. What a boost to moral that would be.

For all of us non FLOPS boys, were those guys in management?
 
Davies was the head computer guy. He had played the give me more money or I'm leaving game before. Guess they told him to leave.

Link was VP of something. When he came in the door he was already looking to get out. Guess he found something better when his year was up.

Link was not a Riccite. The next push on the handle will flush some more out until finally all the Ricci raised management types are gone. The only ones left from the Ricci rule are JS And JM.

Wasn't Link the over-see-er of the OCC? Maybe worried about the "waste management hotline" actually being used and exposing the constant mismanagement of a multi-million dollar facitlity. I doubt this hotline will be taken serious or have any kind of accoutability assoiciated with it though.

I can't believe some still go on and on about Ricci.. He has been gone for many years and RTN has been in control. If mother raytheon did not like these folks they could have given them walking papers. I am not defending them in any way because personally I have verbally clashed with both of the before mentioned and was not impressed. While Ricci was a bit of a worm he in no way can hold a candle to the fun that raytheon has provided for us ie.JN and now MS. Things here are ten fold worse now than ever when Ricci was driving.. Get over it..
