Look Mr Pinder jump ship for more money, he abandoned his post without anyone behind the wheel. He did this to help himself and was praised by the PM. So why on earth should these pilots or any are of service in this country do any different?

Regardless these matter should have been settled long before now in a professional and timely manner and it should have never come down to this in any way form or fashion.

The political arina have set a bad precedents, the timing of both engineers of BEC and the pilots of BahamasAir is a question of: 1. Credibility or the inability of our politicians to manage the affairs of this country in an effective and timely manner. 2. Or, Perhaps our politicians are so busy tryimg to distract us that they are so caught up in their own distractions that they never see whats coming?

This country is on automatic.
