mutt,
from reading your posts i gather your an SA guy and you fly these jungle jets too, and since its a level B in your company the pay for its pilots is less than C and D, correct me if I'm wrong.
is it true that SA is getting rid of them after flying them for some time now?
if so, can u plz fill us in on the cons and prons of it within your operation?
my humble opinion: that its a nice A/C but not for GFA's kind of pax and operation.
Flight ops in GF simply introduced it in a very bad way, and way too fast to the operation, and that caused a great disruption to the pilots the ground crew and many others.
it looks like a one man show right now, where the CEO decides and ops managers just action. its sad to see these guys just working without thinking. at the end of the day its there airline and they should look after it, expat CEO's come and go and all they ever think about is delivering numbers with no consideration to the people who worked and will still work hard for the company if only things where done in a proper manner and not hearting them as individuals.
