Anyone can have a bad day. We need to be aware of that fact and act humbly in response to our coworkers.

However, with another high profile incident just today by anti union pilots (remember the Phenom crew was anti union too until the IBT came to their aid) owners should start to wonder if the promises of the Red Label program equate to the safety promised. While the company is expectedly close vested about these facts, we all secretely know the rules to being an FoK equate to less professionalism not more. The crew on this airplane is notoriously everything that means.

Fact is we are paid to be safe and reliable, not to push the envelope. We are paid to take the heat and stand our ground regarding decisions that might not be popular with owners or dispatchers when lives or expensive equipment is on the line. That is true professionalism.

I'm glad no one was hurt today but the bad news is we all know we aren't going to remain that lucky if things keep going this way.

What happened today?!?
 
452 FX off the runway in North Bend.

And one must ask how much our incident to flight hour ratio has increased under Uncle. I don't know the precise numbers but it's a safe bet to say it's been significant.

And you can't blame it on the Union. Fact is Flexjet has not been run for even an hour under the MCBA or with the security of pilots feeling the muscle to protect their professional decisions. It has been 100% Ricci's way and so far these significant incidents have happened 100% to rabid anti union pilots operating in sycophantish glee to Ricci's way.

More things that make you go hmmmm...
