Lynx (of FLL) Out of Business??
 

Heard from a reliable source today that Lynx Air has ceased operations. It is no secret that they have had financial troubles of late. I am of course talking about the FLL Lynx not the whole different baby animal one;) Can anyone confirm this. Also not sure if this should go here or in the 135 thread..

You may want to edit the title of the thread to reflect that you are talking about the one in FLL. We all have enough stress as it is no reason to make a whole pilot group stress :rolleyes:

Sorry, didnt mean that, I'm from FLL area so Lynx always means the one here...done and done...

GOOD!

If so, 1 down. Several more pos 135 operators out of FLL.

That is a great attitude for when your 121 regional falls out of favor and you are out on the street looking for a flying job. :rolleyes:

He probably has experience with the POS SF operators.

I agree! It is endlessly frustrating that the only jobs available in SF are Rinky Dink pos operations like Lynx, GIA, ETC.

Thats harsh man, considering I know more than a few pilot groups thinking the same thing about your airline...

Kharma..... Its a.....

AA:cool:

Maybe your POS is next.

Since you mentioned it...I'm from FLL area and work as a part time instructor and visit FLL alot and past 2 weeks haven't seen the metro's taking off or on the ramp hmmm I'm gonna find out. Good luck to all their pilots

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.

Oh geez thats the same guy that worked for Vintage, no wonder. I did not know that

And Chalks & Ghana.

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.
