I heard that one of the pilots relocated himself and his family from the US to fly for these jerks, then he never got paid! What happened to the crew?

the airplane in question is now on the austrian register and being operated by banner air.

yes, i know the american guy and he did ship his family over for a vacation and they arrived was the day the crew got binned. i believe they both got paid eventually, but only after a LOT of drama.

heard also that this is not the first time that smolenski (the baby russian) has proved to be a difficult payer. apparently he has to pay up front for maintenance now.
