If we wanted to earn a good living doing this BS then we could only hope every regional went TU

One of the major problem is that incopetent manager that ran Vintage Props and Jets to the ground, and now he was playing as a Lynx International manager.
So far that's the second company I know.
Way to go Albert Vitale.

Is Lynx the Metro and Saab operator? If so I have a distant buddy working there, super nice guy who loves flying and has worked his butt off to get a foot in the door. Sad to see anyone lose their jobs; if it is the same place, though, he's been mentioning to me about bounced-paychecks, dubious MELs, etc. lately. If so, well, I don't wish anyone to the street but sounds like it was just a matter of time.

Got a friend there. He has been having troubles getting paid all the time. I told him to get the hell out now.

Says the guy that works for an alter-ego!

If you think Lynx (south florida Lynx) is a good outfit to work for, then you fit in well with AirWillie at GoJet.

Have fun.
