I have the perfect solution for Northeast.
If they are the ligitimate company they claim to be and all past non payments to the crews were not their fault as they claim, which is a stretch.
Since the are doing the ground schools and hiring in the US, place the pilots on a US contract.
This would establish their credibility an protect the crews.
Then if they did not pay they would be subject to US labor laws an litigation.
If I seen this and had my attorney view this in case of default i might work there.
But this that they are offering sounds like another scam that they are trying to pull.
Screw me once shame on you, screw me twice shame on me.
