Not Q&S from Caverton.
S76Ds are on the cards to replace the 412s in Warri as well as Eket, but who knows if Chevron will ever actually get around to replacing the singles (which do a good job) with twins, and if they do will Bell or Airbus Helicopters win the day? No matter what, there are a lot of disgruntled people, especially in PH now particularly after a few people were forced to depart and excessive roster changes were yet again order of the day. Despite that, management still keep banging on about being overstaffed (whilst at the same time almost every month there is an announcement of a new VP of this, a manager of that, usually in the human remains, financial disaster, service delivery, supply chain 'biz dev and elf and safety departments
).
PAAN's managing director is supposed to be going to Tanzania soon as part of the Bristow-contract-that-isn't-a-Bristow-contract
. A lot of people are confused about this, especially with photos of the helicopters having the names of 2 operators on them.
How many pilots have now heard whether they'll be able to escape Nigeria to the peaceful delights of flying out of Malta to offshore Libya? Of course, if the aircraft are not going to be going near Libyan soil and all the staff are based in 5he holiday destination of Malta, the allowances are likely to be almost non-existent when compared to the 'tropical paradise' with its delightful accommodation in 5 star, secure holiday camps
