Quote from Mr Murphy, dated 28 february 2007:
And to respond to an initial comment, it is correct that I am no longer with the company. Howard Davenport is still there (
[email protected]) and the instructor recruiter is Jessica Tian (
[email protected]). Their website is available at
www.panamaviation.com (there is an English version), but it is somewhat dated as it still carries me as being part of the company.

Yes Pat you are correct.
However it seems that Panam has greater difficulties to recruit people nowadays.
Mr Davenport has gone on a trip to America last month in order to hire instructors. He probably wasn't convincing enough, because up here in Baotou, we haven't seen any new instructor for months.
There are still instructors waiting for their licenses, and others waiting to sit their CAAC written exams.
Instead of trying to do a good job with the students, the instructors who are certified are just too busy competing for a position on the CJ1, and stabbing each other in the back.
The Chinese base manager must be having the time of his life, watching all these foreigners fighting like old ladies.
