Flight Options Recalling Furloughees?
 
heard from a friend who was one of the 70 that got cut a few months back that flight options called him and offered him his job back. must be the truth since he put in his 2 weeks at the company he's currently at. anybody else hear anything?

Brett1, where are you getting this information? :confused:

Are they returning to their previous aircraft types or are they all going to the Beechjet?

I've heard that a majority of the FlOps guys recently hired at TMC have turned in their notices.

No offense, bu Mr. Ed doesn't know what he's talking about. They are coming back with the same pay, same fleet, same seat. However, they will get back pay & benefits all the way back to "Black Friday".

They were heartlessly terminated, not furloughed...
 
Hey Pitt,

I think that it is important to mention that these pilots were terminated with extreme prejudice, not properly furloughed. It is an important difference because it needs to keep shaming the management that carried out that atrocity. They were nothing less that hostages.. And good luck in these days of online apps with filtering ability. Companies can filter applicants for accident, incident, violation, DUI, felony, etc, before they ever get a chance to explain themselves. They are fortunate to be coming back, but this can't be allowed to happen again to good pilots.:mad:

Congratulations, Flight Options hostages! You guys won in the end!

In Unity,
