Allegiant management loves the current state of no bounds. They do whatever they want when they want. Our PIE captain was terminated for trying to do the right thing. Our vp of ops Bingo-Baden violates FARs and bs's atc alongside our director of safety. No consequences. Non existent maintenance that serves only to minimally mask operational needs. No faa intervention, no consequences.
Allegiant management pulls every lawyer trick in the book to worm out of our work rules, which were minimal standards of practice. Signed and dated by our current vp of ops Bingo-Baden. Allegiant managements word, with signatures and handshakes means nothing. No consequences.
And all we get are emails from our coo SH or mav as we like to call him, proclaiming his steadfast efforts to negotiate in good faith. Lies of course. Evidenced by the actions that speak louder than his falsehoods.
I know it's been a recent inception of your union, but where the heck is the National backing of the union to expose these absurdities for what they are?
It must be frustrating because right after this post, some pilot will post a question asking if they can get LAX right out of initial or ask if it's possible to get hired without PIC, etc.....
That really is all mgmt needs to know, whatever working conditions they are offering is still good enough to attract professional pilots. Obviously they are not getting the msg or choosing to ignore the facts and hope for the best.
