Currently about 20 minutes north of Pittsburgh, PA. It is a huge blessing. I just feel for my students, instructors, and dispatchers. Have taken the high road. When informing the FSDO this morning to remove me as chief from the 141 certificate to looks as if things are going to get interesting. Filed out my unemployment paperwork last night. Applied to Peidmont, Plane Sense, Imagine Air, Air Net, Northern States Aviation, Cape Air, Mountain Air, Ameriflight, etc., etc., etc. Not to worried about it all. Papa Johns had a sign out they are looking for delivery drivers. lol
A. Getting your job back with lost compensation
or
B. They'll pay out of their pockets to settle your claim.
If they are performing questionable maintenance, they'll want the FAA and labor board to go away ASAP.
Republic and America Eagle are also hiring with a 5K bonus. I'd choose Eagle over Republic for better QOL. Good luck

Currently experiencing some delays with the labor department. Appears someone claimed they had zero employees the last two quarters. It's all getting straightened out and back pay will be received after the labor dept and IRS are done camping out in these guys back yard. In the meantime, interviewed for a flight engineer position with the USAF Reserves. Was offered the job and just waiting for the paperwork to catch up. Could take months. Also waiting for an interview date with Norfolk Southern. My family, for the most part, had been on the railroad starting back with PRR as engineers and conductors since the late 1800's. Have a Lear charter wanting to bring me on and a sky diving operation opening another drop zone looking for pilots starting in May. It's just the waiting game. Worked for AA on the ground during college and hitting a road block with Eagle. I'd come on with 5 years company senority and have been receiving some flack about it.

Orientation for passenger train engineer May 13th for the DC to NYC line. Have a phone interview with Wiggins today for a C208 run from EWR to BOS. We'll see how they both go. Which one is more of a career, benefits, etc. I'm tired of stepping stones and ready to settle down with one company.
