TMC Pilots have been working on the organizing process since the beginning of this year guys. Their card drive started on August 20, 2014, and met the IBT card threshold within two months, and then they were all off to the National Mediation Board for signature verification. The NMB verified the required showing of interest, and set an election which started today, December 1. The polls close on December 22 at 14:00, and they'll have an answer shortly after.

Look on the bright side

Management might give each pilot an RV of his choice from the owners former company

In the fall of 2008, Mart claims he found out that Liegl had stolen "hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash from factory vending machines owned by Forest River." Liegl also required the company to buy supplies and use airline charter services from other companies he owned, at drastically inflated prices, "pouring millions of dollars into Liegl's pockets over a period of years," the lawsuit states.

Mart says he reported the alleged fraud to Buffett, who is not named in the suit. He then confronted Liegl, seeking his assurance that he would retire as promised, but Liegl verbally abused Mart and threatened to kill him, according to the complaint.

We won! 120 yes, and 57 no of 192 eligible voters. TMC Jets is now an organized pilot group!

Congratulations, guys!

It's a long hard road to a good contract, but it's worth the struggle. Having worked for unionized and non-unionized aviation companies in the past, I'd never go back.

Ohhh, to be a fly on the wall at EKM this afternoon


Congrats, my brothers and sisters!

The Pilots have spoken

This is a great example of the process at work. The majority made their choice and will get the representation sought.

The numbers seeking representation just keep growing in this part of the industry.

Netjets, Flight Options, CitationAir, TMC... Perhaps things at Flexjet will cause them to follow.
