Not that you could ever be accused of that eh, Remoak?
Well if you can show and example of me being like that, by all means fire away...
Tarring every NZ industry participant with that brush
Yes, my bad, I'm only really talking about Air Nelson. Other companies, including Air Freight, Airwork, even Eagle are far more sensible.
They probably did you a favour.
Sure they did, I simply went back to Europe and flew a nice shiny jet, and got paid a very large amount of money for it. No brainer, really... but that doesn't mean that such stupid behaviour should go unmentioned. It's the fact that this sort of nonsense is so readily accepted here, that perpetuates it. NZ aviation lives in a little bubble... hopefully one day the pin will arrive to burst it, and crappy companies like Air Nelson will get the reality check they so richly deserve.
If you want to know WHY Air Nelson is like that, just look back to the guy that started it. A more arrogant and nasty individual would be hard to find. It's his legacy you are seeing.
