I get the "how" as to the aircraft and what to do, its the pilot group I'm most concerned with. How did you guys get everyone on board with the operation? What did the guys who organized things do to get things rolling?


Thank God I'm a secret agent man.
 
I think it all started with the memo about the three options. I don't remember the exact wording of the options but it was something along the lines of:

#1 take a pay cut and get growth/survive
#2 hold out for your demands and lose flying/go under
#3 keep stalling and lose flying/go under

I think we decided that if our company could not stay in business at the current pay rates, then it DESERVED to go under. I for one, got to the point where I didn't care if we went out of business. I was not going to take a cut.


We chose unpublished option #4 We decided that our passengers deserved to experience the safest regional in the world.

Well said.
 
So ASA thinks its operation is safer than every other regional.

My what high opinions you hold of yourselves.

Well...yes!! FOR A TIME we were the safest regional in the world. I'm not claiming that now.

If no airplanes leave the gate you will have quite an impressive safety record!!

Hmmm sounded like it was directed DIRECTLY at fine pilots... no worries.
