BF I sympathise with your plight dealing with people who don't realise as a pilot you only need to speak english not write it like shakespear (you have no worries on that front) You must have passed your English language proficiency test otherwise you wont still be flying. I have been flying in Nigeria for quite a while now and have flown in the best and worst companies but they all had the same thing going for them YOU CAN ALWAYS LEAVE. But the worst thing I have had the misfortune of seeing is a fellow Aviator wishing Death onto anybody least of all a fellow Aviator (too sad). If you are a person with even a little dignity you would appologise for that statement if not for anything else.
OKC thanks for the post it brings to light the little flaws we as pilots have like not paying attention to refuelling or the MLW limitations and the best is to have sit awareness at all times thanks for that I needed a wake up call I was getting lax.Now you are in the middle east forum B@tching about the place and the medicals. Great you moved to fly dubai coz with the type of attitude you got Arik would have shown you the door(not a bad thing for you).
By the way is there a reason you cant get a job back home or are you just too busy moving around from one country to another complaining?
All the problems Nigeria has/is having did not come about yesterday/last year or Three years ago it's been around for decades and you all must have heard about it. Did you all think you could come and just maybe not be entangled in the Problems within the Aviation sector , you came and it did not work out thats life. Shake it off and move on.
FACT:Nigerian Aviation has big problems.
:Lagos is dangerous.
:The Airlines will ASK you to overfly.
:The accomodation is excellent for a THIRD world country.
:You move TO/FROM work with armed escorts.
:If you come with a good attitude we reciprocate.
:You earn enough to keep your mortgage going.
:We have some of the best night fighters money can buy .
GUYS NIGERIA IS A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY WITH THIRD WORLD PROBLEMS IF YOU AINT HERE TO HELP PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING "LEAVE"
