Works fine on my iphone and Ipad, just wondering how to get the "Sign in" Button to actually activate the sign in process?? Thanks!
I know I had the issue last week, and it had to do with my pop-up blockers. Once I enabled it to allow pop-up blockers it let me log in.

Honest question: Im sure Im not the only one wondering, and Im certainly not the first to ask this kind of question here, but why are you all still at NK if its so horrible?

Anytime someone posts asking a question about the company or suggests that they'd like to apply theres like 5 or 6 of you guys who, without fail, always spring into action and talk down to whoever asks. I don't doubt that NK has its downfalls but if their judgment is so questionable for even considering NK, what does that say about the trolls who still work there?

Im sure the sharks and trolls will soon start coming down on my post but again, honest question.

Many of us are trying to get out.

Also it's mostly self serving but also facts given in the posts. It's all true but more importantly every new hire that comes on property lessens our main leverage for a contract

The link for FLICA in RA no longer works. Use www.flica.net from here on out.

Mentioned on the previous thread:

2016 - 214 Hired and 67 Left (Resigned or Retired)

Folks are leaving or actively pursuing other airlines.

That's 31 percent of that which is hired gone and preventable . Hahahah. Hope you aren't in charge of an airline
Or in another way 25-30 thousand for a type rating times 67. That's close to 2 million a year. I'd hate to be a manager in charge of that kind of loss

Doesn't quite support the planned growth and aircraft delivery schedule. Spirit has a very limited training pipeline.

I think that those resignation numbers will only get worse in 2017.

Resigned or Retired out of the entire group is how I interpreted Chimpy's prior post.

Because they are completely out of touch with reality. Maybe have never had a normal job. Or this is their first airline job.

I don't think it's that. It's lifers here trying to tell incoming pilots that they're losers and this place is horrendous. Please Leave!
