Devil 1Time Pilot Losses

Just heard that 1Time's Chief Pilot has resigned!! Anybody know why? I guess he just got tired of beating his head against the brick wall!!

I think this brings the total up to about 7 or 8 resignations in the last 2 months - that's got to hurt a little company with a such a small pilot group! The cost of training up replacements is going to put quite an unwanted burden on 1Time - especially in the face of new competition, rising fuel prices, broken aircraft, etc.

Happy pilots don't leave their employers - it would make better business sense to look after the guys and protect the huge investment that the company has to commit to them. But short sightedness, greed and poor planning seem to rule the day!

As stated in other threads, the guys can only take so much abuse and then vote with their feet. When will operators like 1Time ever learn?

To all the guys that have resigned - good luck!! The world's markets are waiting!!
