In most cases here on APC, I try to come at situations with an objective mind. I know a lot of pilots who get ****ed off at their airlines for one reason or another...and the excuse is usually that management sucks whether it be true or not. I don't always like siding with that argument because it's hard to judge somebody and their decisions until you've met them or walked a mile in their shoes.

So I tried to be objective about the whole PW firing of pilots for supposedly starting a union. For the record, I believed the pilots on here because those that worked there all had the same story, and those who posted here have posted similar hatred toward all of PW operations...even those outside of Hawaii.

But this absolutely seals the deal. I am absolutely shocked that somebody could be this arrogant, hotheaded, idiotic, and insulting all at the same time. I don't ever need to meet this guy to figure out how much of a jerk everyone says he is...because he is allowing the media to see his bad side. What an full-fledged a##wipe. That's pretty much it.

Can anyone jump in and replace this shoddy operation? Mokulele? Someone should just come in, undercut his fares on Kalaupapa and run his crappy operation into the ground. I'm sure the public would be happy enough to fly someone else now if given the choice.

Mokulele could have had it all. But Boyer lost Mokulele to RAH, and are probably getting ready to get rid of the Vans!

I actually contributed to this evil company by working there. eventhough it was only for a very brief moment, I apologize!

For you who are left, it's a dead end gig and it's time to get out quickly!
