Actually they have 6 WEEKS left. The CP already has a job offer with Airtran. I'm sure the DO will be out of a job as well. I heard that they have severence packages that are based on Skyway continuing to fly until the end. That may be some motivation for them reacting so strongly to what they feel is an "unnecessary" cancellation.
I don't know if any disciplinary action will exist when Skyway is gone. I guess that's a question for my attorney.
Yes, I talked to the POI at the FSDO but Skyway somehow got to him (or his supervisor). The guy who only a week ago was singing praises to me for making the right decision is suddenly looking the other way. "This is an administrative matter between you and your company" were his exact words. Let's see if I have this straight. Skyway wants to ignore a manufacturer's warning because it will cost them money if they obey it. To this end they have suspended a pilot who simply followed this warning. Somehow, the POI doesn't feel this is a safety issue. Well, he's the one who has to look at himself in the mirror and admit that he bowed to pressure and compromised his principles.
