Yes, but that is due to poor planning way above my pay grade, because next time they come to the pilot group to help them out of their problem, I hope a bad precedent has not been set.
Exactly what I was thinking. We shut this place down for five days during strike while company was operating in the red.....we survived. I usually try to give people the benefit of the doubt, so until now still hadn't jumped on the Bendo trashing bandwagon. But his last podcast made me realize what a used car salesman he really is! It's one thing to shell out these excuses to the public to cover our ass, but to try and sell it to us that work here?! Weather alone at two of our stations almost shut an airline down?! "Stopped crews from being able to get where they needed to go to work"!? Really??!! This is a normal day in the airline world!
It is now apparent he can't be trusted (yes I'm a little slow!!).
