Hi there jumbo Mouse and fellow Sun Air Drivers
I've been following the replies with some interest today - sure beats the local newspaper here! It is sad to see the dealings back there in SA and I guess it's reality hitting home again. What is really sad is to see it becoming a "mud-slinging" match between fellow aviators. Looking in from the outside may be easier, but I've been there - having to leave no fewer than 3 companies through no choice of mine. But looking back, whinging about it did not get me here onto an A340. One has to pick up the pieces and move on. It's no different anywhere else in the world. I feel for all those involved there, and I wish them all the best with their applications to Comair/BA. I was there on the 737 and thought highly of the company. I believe they will be around for a long time yet. Bear in mind the "little island" to the East is always taking on more FO's so post those CV's without delay. Hey, sky van, looks like you'll need to fly with your "flak-jacket" from now on?
jumbo Mouse, see you on Tues on the apron OK?
Au revoir................
