It has taken me a few days on how to report this to all of you. With the holiday season upon us Flight options must feel that they need a larger holiday present for themselves. It goes to show how little quality of life this company has.
Recently Flight Options has terminated a 9 year pilot for not being able to get a hold of his co-pilot on a trip. I was not going to write anything on here until I saw the co-pilot gloting that he had gotten this particular pilot terminated. He must be real proud of himeself. When the Co-pilot decided that he would not respond to the Capt cell phone calls, in house calls, knocking on the door the Capt was in a pinch and could only start heading to get the plane ready. The crew was into their 13th hour of rest. The co-pilot had chose to not work with the crew but against the crew. Now this Capt was terminated over this. I give a lot of credit to 1108 for giving it their best. But when I hear a co-pilot gloting over this in a FBO I wanted to punch him. Now a former 9 year veteran of Flt Ops. is sitting at home sweating on how to pay bills, give his 3 children, one who is less than 6 mths old, a good holiday, and put food on the table.
I know this is going to stir up a lot of expresions from all of you. All I am asking is that think before you do something. You might not just be affecting your fellow crew mate, but be putting his whole family in jeopardy. We all think that way when it comes to safety. Let's all work together to get a job done. Seperate company bs from flying. It is the holiday season, let's all try to get along for the next months and make each others life a little better.
Thanks,
