Orenstein headed for Spirit?

[altscap]

It is possible that the Mesa BOD finally booted JO; or he left on his own. Either way, speculation has him headed for Spirit. Look out guys, you have no idea what's about to hit you. If, that is, this turns out to be true.

Double wammy: Other rumors have it that some scheduling chick named Yolanda recently bounced around a couple of box-haulers, screwed everything up, and is now headed for Spirit as well. This should be a red alert for all of you on the property. A Perfect Storm of scheduling B.S., lack of accountability, and zero concern for crew QOL is brewing on your back porch.

Good luck! Keep your head down, and your britches up.

are you sure it's not Yoshanda from Wichita? she of infamous, "You be modified" fame.

I also see Zaka, aka "the mad mex" was promoted to director to ops. God help them all at MAG!

Don't see anything about JO leaving....

 

[Gearthrower]

He has been on our board for the past year, he pails in comparison to Bill Franke, who is a first rate Union Buster himself. Let JO come we will place a picture in the hall under all the other past DB Managers and Execs we have had here over the years.

 

[Z_Pilot]

Best of luck to the Spirit pilots if this happens.

 

[chignutsak]

he pails in comparison to Bill Franke

Really? Are you comparing the size of their pails?

 

[castle bravo]

Like Gear says, Johnny O has already been on the NK board for a while. No news here.

 

[tubelcane]

If you see him in the hallway ask him how he sleeps paying his people nearly poverty wages to start, and then he and his pails ride around the country in Beechjet and Hawker shares he owns with a certain fractional in CGF.

This article has been tagged since July 2007. Jonathan Ornstein is President and Chief Executive Officer of Mesa Air Group, Inc. and was appointed effective May 1, 1998. From April 1996 to his joining the Company as Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ornstein served as President and Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Virgin Express, a European airline. From 1995 to April 1996, Mr. Ornstein served as Chief Executive Officer of Virgin Express Holdings, Inc. Mr. Ornstein joined Continental Express, as President and Chief Executive Officer in July 1994 and, in November 1994, was named Senior Vice President, Airport Services at Continental Airlines. Mr. Ornstein was previously employed by the Company from 1988 to 1994, as Executive Vice President and as President of the Company’s WestAir Holding, Inc. subsidiary.
A former stockbroker, Ornstein's license was revoked by the federal government. Over nine years, he bounced around around five firms, getting fired, from several. Why? A lengthy disciplinary record — the official printout is 21-feet long — charging unauthorized trading, misrepresentation, document alteration and churning. Eventually, Ornstein was fined $20,000 and suspended as a broker for three years.

he ain't mexican dude. I can't believe you would insult the mexican people like that. (lol)

Yes they would be offended. I do know he is not Mexican, but that is what he was called (or at least we called him). Mad does fit him.

He's management isn't he? Insatiable, limitless greed rules.

 

[altscap]

I haven't been able to substantiate the JO leaving mesa rumor, but there is some grumbling about Mickey moman getting the boot so maybe the fact that short-man Zaka moving in to the D.O. position is legit.

So, the ceo of spirit is on the mesa bod, and the ceo of mesa is on the spirit bod. Ain't it nice how just a few screwed up people are actually running the whole industry. Nahhh, there isn't any shread of evidene to support a conflict of interest. We'd neeeevveer be able to convince the SEC to investigate that industry and through all the bastards in jail.

As for Zaka, the only reason he didn't get fired a long time ago is because he has too much dirt on jo, lotz, ferverda, moman and the rest of the dirtbags up there that if they kicke him he could take a few political jabs at them.

extended

He was just extended for 3 more years by the BOD. Check it out on yahoo finance boards

 

[altscap]

I had heard that as well.

This new speculation surfaced after the extension announcment.

 

[Skippy]

What is so bad about that???

Will he be bringing that hot sh*t piece of a$$ that he sired???? That would be a real sweet deal...... TASTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah but that could be nothing more than his buddies on the board giving him a Golden parachute. Damn I knew I should have failed out of business school and than become a felon for SEC violations. I guess i have learned my lesson.

 

[dispatchguy]

I thought that if you were a felon, you couldnt have a SIDA badge, and that no airline could really let you touch a secure area.

I mean, when I applied recently for a dispatch gig, there was that one form with felonies like murder and rape, and aksing if you were guilty of any of them.

So SEC violations arent real felonies eh? kewl

He don't need no SIDA to ruin the... opps I means run an airline.... yeah bouyyyyy.....

you'd have to get in line behind a lot of yv guys who would deserve a first crack - seniority applies here ha ha

Honestly, you don't want to be tied to jo for life if she got knocked up and it turned out to be yours. Having him as an in-law or the grandfather of your child would not be high on my list of pleasurable life experiences. Though, at least you know the kid will be able to go to a good college, unlike grumps, ah, gramps.

He has to be escorted by a SIDA designated escort whenever on the ramp...or so i am told
