Did they go on vacation? Company out of money? FAA shut them down?

Does not look like they have. They have a number of aircraft flying for UPS this year. Both MD11 and 744

I think they get paid in venezuela bolivars. Or maybe pesos'

Their motto is "Money? We don't need no stinkin money!

What is a 24 in 7 for a Skylease pilot? It means they fly 24 hours a day for 7 days straight.

Can't wait to see that company go out of business! The owner is a true scumbag

There are many legitimate reasons a pilot would fly without getting paid. Your question is being asked from your position of having a job. Perhaps they want to stay current, perhaps it is for the benefits. Who knows. To throw a rock at them or in any way look down upon them and call them "suckers" is just wrong. Now, before you again launch another statement from your ivory tower such as, "everybody is hiring", know that those positions may not fit that pilots circumstances.
Now, if you want to throw boulders at their POS owner then count me in. Picking at the employees? Just not cool

I don't believe that Climb meant to throw rocks, and never called them suckers, but the question remains, why would those pilots continue to move those aircraft after being owed so much money???

I live in South Florida and have friends that fly for them, and a few that left Centurion/SkyLease to come to Atlas, and have heard first hand of the thousands of dollars in back pay promised to them, and still have not been paid. The owner will continue down this path as long as the planes keep moving, it's time for the pilots employed by SkyLease/Centurion to stop flying for free, and demand whats owed to them.
