The guy I talked to had a Compass badge and was driving a TSA truck. Kinda like when guys with TSA badges driving a Gojet truck come up to the plane. So unless the company is violating the FARs big time, there is no way a TSA employee can have a Compass badge.

Same way it worked when AX/G7 were both operating in LGA, the mechs worked for G7 and were contracted to work AX birds as ODM.

I believe I already pointed that out.

I said TSH. Stands for Trans States Holdings which owns Gojet, Compass, and TSA. Mechanics from all 3 certificates work on planes for other certificates.

Bang. Double down the left field line.

P.S. when does Bedford start signing the checks?

All I can say the way TSH jacks these mechanics around I never know who I'm gonna see giving me the log can. Nor do I really care as long as it is filled out right. Sorry if it rocks your world that I talked to a Compass mechanic in SDF. However you want to contort it, it isn't good that TSH is ****ing off mechanics when there is a shortage of them.

Not sure he's going to sign your checks, but one way or the other he is probably going to get the rest of your 170s to go along with the 6 airplanes BB has already taken from you.

The reason they were using the TSA IDs was the refusal of some ALPA members to allow them access to the jumpseat. Once that was found out, the Feds were notified and the practice ended because in the FAAs view, you can only work for one certificate at a time.
