The Nigerian Police Air Wing....now that is a study of all to itself!

What was a few years back....Twenty-two Million US Dollars spent on spares....and not a single flyable aircraft to show for it?

I am quite sure the Nigerian government will sort this situation out quite smartish....ya'll just stand back and watch the fur fly!

Who was the lady that seemed to sort out the Lagos Int'l Airport....she would be my pick for the job. There was a definite improvement there.

The post by Wilcock in the African aviation forum is a must read!

To think....there are some very qualified, professional, ethical people in Nigeria that suffer from the excesses of such a system.

I know quite a few that I would love to see take an active role in bringing Nigerian aviation into the mainstream. The problem is getting rid of the problem children that run the place now.
