OO-AOG,. .ref your problems with positioning to SVO - that's exactly what I'm talking about. We faced such problems in many, many cases. Even if you have arrangements for crew visas in destination airport, crew might be refused from boarding at origin airport. Now add that sometimes we need to make positioning with one or two connections and then it is almost impossible. Year ago we have chartered C604 vip-jet to delever crew to some point in dark Africa - that's was the only option due to visa issues.. .I know Hadid very well however I'm not impressed with their performance. I understand you are in businness jet operations - that's much easier than cargo operations from traffic rights point of view. If something goes wrong in Luanda (everybody on weekend at CAA) then you will not receive traffic rights for 3 or 4 days, and Hadid, UAS, Moufad, An-Aviation Services Egypt and other agents can do nothing with it - one of our recent nightmare.
