Scumbag cargo company Hall of Shame

[Windsor]

I think its about time to start a Hall of Shame for all the crap cargo outfits out there. You know the ones I'm talking about. The ones that treat their pilots like dirt. The ones people should avoid if they have any self respect, ect, ect, ect.

enjoy.

I dont think there is a cargo company or airline in existence that wouldnt be on that list at one time or another.

UPS,

No wait they treat their pilots well, its just their subcontractors they they treat like Cr@p.

When pilots are treated like crap it is their duty to find another job.

Ameristar should be at the top of that list...... I feel bad for any young kid who goes there thinking he is doing something good.....

Not a lot of positives flowing from Air Tahoma, or Skyway (in Florida). Batfish

Speaking of which pilotyip, how is the attrition at USA Jet? Anyone deciding to get out of the on demand business on your side of the field? Batfish

P.S not saying you treat anyone like crap, I was refering to the finding another job part of your post.

T'would be good if the UPS Pilots and/or their union stood up for the feeder pilots.

Turnover at USA is running about double of what it was a year ago, but well below what it was in 1999-2001. It is expected, we are a stop in a career path. A place to pay your dues. Average pilot has been here for almost six years. It is manageable turnover; we have no training contract and are filling our classes. Everyone has left for what could be described as a better job, although is it a much lower pay to start.

How about AirNow. They've crashed a few in the last 5 years and forced a pilot to fly a Bandit with a broken AI.

What did they do, hold a gun to his head?

I call BS on that Airnow AI forced flight thing. They may have had a few mishaps but they're not stupid.

Uhhh....yeah right. I don't think you'll find any pilot group or company in this industry that stands up for pilots/employees of their contractors.
