UPS didn’t even give the courtesy of interviewing, I believe, any of the Emery pilots nor the Challenge Air Cargo pilots when they acquired those companies. I don’t believe that they hired ANY from either group. They are the last company that you want to get acquired by..
Were you a Flatiron driver?

The fat lady is singing. Sorry to all those effected. At least the hiring market is good.

Why Jet It Failed and fired all employees
https://www.flyingmag.com/why-jet-it-failed/
They just used the "safety stand down" as an excuse to claim "Force Majeure". This seems to be a re-run of Avantair where the owners are on their own to find their jet and pay off the liens. I think the wait list for NetJets is about to get a lot longer as owners see the advantage of having a company like Berkshire Hathaway standing behind the Fractional Operator.
I hope no pilots were left out in the system and made to find their own way home.
