I sent the website link out to family and friends and asked them to pass it along...this email excerpt comes to me from someone i havent met before

"Before I read any further the first thing I thought was, Hell, I wouldn't want to be flying on a plane with a sick pilot! That's bull****!!!! It sounds pretty much to me that the owners of air wisconsin don't give a damned about thier emplyees. Unfortunately, this seems to be the case of too many employers in this country. I myself, consider flying to be a very serious issue and would only assume that MY PILOT would be healthy, well rested, stress free, well paid and basically very happy with his job. To think that an airline company which has peoples LIVES literally in thier hands is only conserned about themselves and is a bunch of penny pinching cheapskates is upsetting. I don't know exactly what kind of training is involved in obtaining a commercial pilots license but can only assume that it is extensive! For Gods sake it's not like your driving a damned cab! Is it this way in the ENTIRE airline industry? Are we jumping on airplanes under the false assumption that these companys give a damned about ANYTHING other than the bottom line? Reading this DEFINATELY makes me think twice about getting on a plane. What about the airplanes, are they being super glued and repaired with duct tape? Seriously, I want to know! If they're too damned cheap to care about the pilots, what about the equipment?"
