I worked there for a year a few years ago. Still his name on the mast head, but he gave or sold it to his number 2 a few years back.
I had no clue he was a UAL pilot until the day of the interview. He’s got a big “Me” wall in the main building. I never saw him the year that I worked there. Not even sure he ever came around, though his p51 was still kept in a hangar.
Furthermore, owners attach their plane to CLA’s 135 certificate. You interview with an account manager, chief pilot, and then the aircraft owner. It was a phenomenal job, but came with a 135 schedule.

I doubt Lacy gave anything to anyone ... not his demonstrated mindset ... just saying.

My 2 cents - his side gigs did very well financially, I don’t believe he needed his UAL paycheck to buy groceries. Besides, his celebrity clients who used the charters were union members (SAG among others) so I was pretty surprised he crossed.
In my opinion, losing corporate clients who contracted his company for photo work may have swayed the decision.
Bottom line goes to the character of the individual, which isn’t saying much.
