Winja,
best not get into a "pissing contest" as to who is better or not, ....leave that to arguing about the Rugby......
BUT, to bring balance to the PNG/FIJI argument, I'll bring up TRIPELAPIDGEON (POST 1401) post....
"In addition LVO autoland on a non LVO runway by non qualified LVO crew in an airline not approved for LVO is not only tacitly approved by the fleet office at PX but actively encouraged."
The Fleet office mentioned consists of two, a Technical Manager who is also the Senior Check Captain (a Fijian) and the Fleet Manager (non Flying position an expat who spent many many years years flying 737's in Fiji). They were the management group presiding for the accident and the incident being discussed...the fatal one at Chuck and the most recent "unapproved Auto land incident".
ANG was overseen by a series of CASA guys who were Fijian, some who have returned to Fiji. (BTW Fiji Airways has just hired two extremely capable PX 737 Captains, who cut there teeth on places like Hagan).
Winja, every nationality has their Aces, Great, Good, Average etc, and I never took it that "Office Update" was implying Fijians were any different to any one else...just that ANG was trying to put some some pretty green pilots onto it jet fleet.
