Well, As much as I should not be surprised looking at the blatant corruption at all levels in the Philippines, I was surprised to see the Philippines Country and ALL it's Airlines banned from the EU Airspace in the last recent report.
I must say I have traveled without incident and as a happy customer on PAL many times, I thought though they could compete in the lands of corruption against Vietnam and Thailand as a level playing field. Clearly not. Those National Carries made their respective Authorities tow the line to Intl Standards in a kind of round about way when push comes to shove.
Well, PAL pay to get western help from America to assist and get the CAAP back as being able to manage it's chater to a ICAO standard. Money Talks, I have no problem with that, with it works from safety. I wonder though how western logic Americans plan to deal with protected incompetents?
Good luck to them, hope it is all good and much safer in the future,
In the mean time, PAL is of the list !!!!!!
Even though I want to give them 3 cheers for saying enough is enough, lets get help to move on in this place.
