we don't dance samba, we fly jets
SAMA was a challenge for a few years, crews flying old and not well taken care airplanes, and there was no incidents nor accidents. Crews were mixed from many countries and a great airmanship in the flight deck, resulting in excellent CRM.
Stopping operation is still a game to get money, but crews are already lined up for other carriers in the region and far east, it will not take time to disappear from KSA. Good not to have to live under such bad managers anymore, the last ones were zeros on the left with a chief pilot that does not know anything about aviation, or the airplane, nor safety. Anyhow, as somebody mention before, we feel great to leave, fulfilling a job well done in such poor conditions and, in a big market, but with bended rules. The people in Saudi was really nice and it was a privilege to serve them.
