I saw them at LAX..........................sad. Truly sad.

Back on topic... Wings Air is not EAS. It is a privately funded upstart commuter. It does kind of suck that the FOs don't get paid. They are hiring CAs. Lots of furloughed guys I know are there.

As a Captain for Wings Air, I can tell ya...we get alot of "Follow the WHAT out of Ramp 1?"

It's alot of fun at Wings...home every night...good people to work with...and the fact that we come into T10 now (while Pacific Wings/Georgia Skies has to go into the FBO and bus pax over to the terminal).

We currently don't "pay" the FO's...which sucks, it's a startup...but we do have some really good guys working there. Alot of guys on furloughs.

Wings Air is "Bushwood" on Atlanta Approach (yes, it is from Caddyshack!)
