Great Video now maybe people will understand what goes into producing an aircraft with the time effort and cost the ICON A5 is hand built like a Euro sports car the quality matches the price. 👍🎯💲

These type of companies complains about the workers need some specialized training but also this company will only hire undergrads coming from schools as CONALEP, COBACH, CECYTEM they're only technicians, this type of company avoid to hire engineers from schools as the IPN, UAM UNAM because they want to pay a lower salary to people that need more training investing a little more money for training but saving tons of money in salaries, if they wanna do this it is okay but dont complain you need to train technicians, lets be clear to them: youre not hiring the ideal people for the job in order to save money

@AyuntamientodeTijuanaMX que pasará ahora que ICON Mexico ya no existe? Que pasará con los 207 trabajadores que no quieren indemnizar como marca la ley? Solo se presentó @co-productioninternational y les dijo a los trabajadores que ya no les puede pagar por qué ICON no les a pagado a ellos. Co-production es el empleador de esos 207 empleados
