FeL1011,
Things have not changed there concerning pay.
When Thaisky was shut down everyone was owed money and had to buy a ticket home.
Yet Thaisky took our salary money and leased a MD 90, when they could not make the lease payments they removed one of the engines and tried to hide it to prevent the leasing company from repo for non payment.
This has all been posted less than 3 years ago.
When Skyeyes played their games we all just left on our own expense.
The Sky eyes aircraft is impounded with the UAE government, seen the Thaisky, Zoom aircraft in SHJ a few days ago.
All violations A/D AOC issues as why they are impounded.
Once they slip out of the Thai protection, they are eventually caught.
I do not know but having worked in Thailand I am truly believe that the pilots on 1 to go was probably out of duty time regulations. as this was standard procedure in many companies there.
Why the DCA did not accept this evidence especially when Udom was caught on tape lying to a news repoerter and trying to cover up about flying hours, duty times was beyond me.
The tape by the news was here on pprune in a previous thread.
Think this tape from the news is still available on the Investigate Udom web site.
