JAA promise
In a wonderful twist of fate Benecio pled with on of the captains who quit because he was not paid to fly a flight. Benecio's pitiful request was, "if you don't fly the flight we will have to cancel and it will cost us millions of dollars."
Let me break it down so that even an unpaid pilot can understand this.
JAA does not pay salaries.
Pilot quits because his salary is not paid.
Benecio asks unpaid former JAA pilot to fly a flight.
Former pilot refuses.
Benecio tries to get former pilot to sympathise with the plight of the company's loss of revenue.
Former pilot is still not paid and refuses to fly further flights without compensation.
Bottom line JAA management would rather cancel flights because of the lack of pilots than pay them.
Conclusion: JAA is not an airline. People do not matter. Safety? Competence at upper management is non existent.
Watch the boys rack up more debt and mysteriously disappear with all the remaining assets.
