I was all hope and positivity too, but this place is done. MX supervisor, shop chiefs, and more than half the ATW mechanics all quit…this place is sinking. Get out while you can.

Let's also state why they left. Allegiant opening a MX base in ATW paying $8/hr more along with Gulfstream's raise. Not because the company is tanking.

again, nothing about that excludes people actively leaving or why Allegiant, in its wisdom targeted ATE

I love all of the doom and gloom comments. I have no idea what the future holds for this company but I do know that every 3-5 years for the last 2 decades or so these comments resurface. If you’re considering leaving, do it. If you want to stay, do it. Your broken crystal ball should have no bearing on either decision.

Different times from 5 years ago . The product they offer no one wants anymore, that’s crystal clear . Beyond that ,who knows .

I’ve been at my company 5 years now. And am on iPad number 2. When Apple care expires, you usually just need to get new devices rather than extend them. A lot of devices probably have some pretty degraded batteries, as most iPhone users know, they don’t make these things to last the long haul.


AW still has flights to operate and compete until the last day of the contract, and you need up to date charts on a FAA approved device. Don’t hang your hats on a tablet. They’re simply giving you the tools to meet their current obligations.

Default Classic video

This is a classic video from 2015 when AWAC lost Delta flying before it started... Lots of very true statements... especially the one at mark 3:30 "I am sure the new iPad program will help moral as well"
