It appears that the 14 on / 14 off fiasco at Avantair has been scrubbed thanks to the pilot group's overwhelming rejection of the idea. They said NO to the PAC Board and management. Good for you guys. Your families will appreciate you choosing them over the ideas of the PAC and CEO.

Fly Dude.....the company will STILL save money and make you happy if you volunteer for 14/14. All YOU and you and your 4 friends on the PAC Board have to do is run into the office and tell them you are VOLUNTEERING for 14/14. Even if 1 pilot does this schedule, the company will save some money. SO.....you guys be leaders and run and get this done. All the new hires are supposed to be FORCED onton 14/14, aren't they?
This time next week we expect to hear that YOU and 4 PAC members are now on a 14/14 schedule. The company will have more money for management raises too ! Don't let us down....LOL

You made your choice not to stay in this business. I made mine of staying in it.
I know I made the right choice for me.

Your other post did have positive statements in that the management is working with a pilot group. From all my experience that is an industry first.
And after reading several news articles, Avantair appears to be poised for a great future. No furloughs, no cutbacks, and a great airplane to operate in these economic times.

Glad to see that management listened to the pilot group on this 14/14 subject. I'm not with Avantair but I could imagine that working 14 day tour could be tough?
