The latest word drifting down from Doha is; The boss of the Training Dept has been fired.
Why? For doing his job! Which is maintaining standards and weeding out those below the standard.
his only mistake was that he declined to give a command rating to a muslim pilot. He offered to allow him to stay on as a P2 until his mental accuity improved (?). Another muslim went to the GM (a local muslim who has declared that he wants an all islamic company) and claimed the training boss was RACIST.
So JA was dismissed with NO chance to give his side of the events!!
So, if Gulf Helis advertises for Training Captains and you apply, be prepared to lower your standards or have a short employment tenure.
