I have to agree Connie is no Dell Smith, K4 is a billion dollar revenue generating privately held company. Dell was late to the dance with fleet modernization and the many other distractions he had but some guys made the Zone a career. The K4 pilots are displeased with the final stages of their contract negotiations and thats understandable. I would have to say that the initiator of this thread threw gas on a smoldering fire by airing out internal biz, the K4 MEC should be the mouthpiece for the group. The problem can be solved by implementing special provisions in the negotiating process to prevent one individual from holding up a TA that the MEC wants to present to the group.
