I THINK it is I S. If so, don't waste your time. He's a crook! He still owes me money and dozen of other people.
Do they have a # where you can call and ask?

Financial Advisory Group
East Western Airways
IRS Airlines (Nigeria)
Air Van

Its all the same guy....IMAD SABA. Same phone/fax number in Sahrjah or Dubai for all companies.

He changes the name only to sucker new crews into working for him. "You will fly 200 hours a month working for me, my brother" is his main pitch. You wont ever fly that much and he will never pay you anyway. He also talks about flying in nice tourist spots but the planes all work from Nigeria.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

ENG,

No need in a PM. The Dog said it very well. The more info that we can get out on this Scum Bag the better the aviation world is.
Besides not paying for the work that you do, he does ZERO maintenance on his aircraft. Don't get me started on that issue.

Air Van is desperately trying to recruit DC10 crews on climbto350 . They tried as Air Van a few days back and now they are trying under the name of their parent company 'FINANCIAL ADVISORY GROUP'

Beware!

The MAN
This is the same guy that was ringing up Biman crewmembers in the hotel in Jeddah offering the earth a few days ago.

I've only heard bad stuff about him and his whole operation.

More info
A colleague of mine had a direct call from matey boy trying to get an FE.

He said he had two Brazilian pilots already - no names when asked.

My mate said he'd do the job but wanted the payment up front.

Needless to say he's not heard a whisper since.

Not being a violent person (particularly) I'd like to stop this man's oxygen but only for 5 minutes, he can then have all he wants.. .

People like this give us all a bad name.

There's no connection to Rudad Aviation Services in Dubai. You're confusing two different scumbag operations.

Got that this guy is using an ex Electra DC10-15 EK registered moving Hajj freight from Kabul to Jed.

Should be an interesting departure/arrival at Kabul under VFR conditions on the 10

Hello... I understand that the this thread is old.

I will appreciate if you can provide additional info on IMAD SABA as I am supposed to work for him.

Is he the Christian Palestinian and owns aircraft with operations in Sharjah UAE?

Thanks for the info.
