Aime's Rest Of The Story
Aime's story is very telling about AirServ, I experienced almost the same. Not everyone, but most managers and staff, as well as the few pilots I met (both in-country and at US HQ) were arrogant, incompetent and deceptive. If you are in AirServ "Gods" inner circle, than everything is allowed. The country director at the time did not even speak a word of the country language. The local employees (cooks, house-cleaning, drivers, etc.) were treated like **** (even though they all performed an excellent work) and paid through questionable middle-men, so that in effect AirServ was not their legal employer. At AirServ bribes and overpayment for goods & services not needed are the norm. So is cronyism . In my opinion they were also abusing the privileges of Part 91 as they were selling tickets basically to whoever wanted to fly. The AirServ I saw was NOT a humanitarian organization by any mean, let alone "not for profit".
