Press Release – FAA Proposes $150,000 Civil Penalty Against Talon Air, Inc.

[BEEF SUPREME]

Wow... Sounds shady. Reputation is everything. FAA investigators did their job. Gotta wait for Talon's response.

But in the mean time....... Champagne for the whistle blower!

I wonder how many other operators violate the regs this way.

Anyone who can get away with it....

Oh yeah? Last I heard he was at Commutair. Glad he's back in a shiny jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

He left Commut a while back. He's El Capitan on the Hawker 4000 now.

But no one died right?

Guess it was okay anyway. Senator Inhofe is gonna pass a law that makes it illegal to go after organizations using unqualified pilots. Take that FAA. PFJ Bill of Rights

I actually know a few people there. I'm surprised to hear this.

AMF doesn't ever do recurrent training. Ever. Just recurrent checking. Oh wait, we did watch that video online. My bad.

You guys make it sound like they did this intentionally. If this were intentional, I guarantee the FAA would not be slapping their wrists with "unqualified" and "not current". Besides, the lift was "river panning" quantity. Likely, they pissed someone off and earned some special attention.

Yeah. Overdue training for three guys just slips through the cracks. Happens every day at respectable outfits.

Annual training has a way of sneaking up on you...... Annually.
