Lynx Feb 5th
On Feb 4th we found out we were losing our jobs...
On Feb 5th we were on time for 100% of our departures... Way to stay classy and professional... that's how Lynx will be remembered. Good luck everybody! |
Good for you guys. Keep it up. You're in most peoples thoughts, and I hope the best for all of you.
Just remember though, sometimes things happen for a reason, and when one door closes another opens. Try to be optimistic about the whole thing, and you might be surprised what happens. I got laid off from Mesa last month, but something much better rolled around for me 3 weeks later totally unforeseen. You just never know. :) |
the entire industry is shrinking - amazing that what is happening here is a mirror image of the whole airline story. consolidation, mergers and bk's. too few jobs and those that are available pay less and less. something like 35% of the industry has disappeared since 9/11. and...it ain't over yet! the glory days are over and yet all we do is assign blame for job theft.

I wish all Lynx pilots-many of them former Mesa pilots-the best of luck in the future. Leaving one flying job for the next, then losing that job a couple years later really sucks. With any luck, all of you will have the chance to fly the EMB 170/190s in the near future.

Being consummate professionals isn't going to do anything to keep you off the street or help our profession. Its just putting more money into BB's pockets and lets him call all the shots as most advantageous to you.
Hes announced hes going to hit you guys down hard. Why not beat him to the punch? |
