I see that, unlike me, you've been pretty active on pprune for a while, thats great!
Slander might be a little far fetched, but yeah, blowing off steam and venting disappointing facts, you got me; guilty as charged!

But one thing you might not be completely aware of, pprune is actually a place where people, unlike in our labor-culture-divergence-paradime, CAN voice their opinions without the fear of threat or retaliation. So, if you are sensitive enough to actually feel offended, well, I must have hit a nerve then... oh well...

I believe this thread is for outside pilots who are thinking hard about career and life changes, and my opinion is actually just about THAT.
Also, no need to threaten me with "dismissal" (yes, that is what VNA is really good at, right? All threats, no improvements; long live socialism!) besides being fairly anonimous here, I also use several VPNs, so good luck. AND, yes, I already turned in my resignation a few weeks ago, so you can get your blood pressure under control again; sure you can go ahead and wish me the best and tell everyone how much you will miss me...



Kodiak got my drift though; thanks! So, in your opinion, it was "only" the Static Port!! Great, but did you actually ask yourself "what will it be next time", perhaps? But, please admit at least, that VNA does not have a preventative safety management system or even a safety oriented culture. Its operating philosophy is that of threats and punishment, and as far as I was made aware of a few weeks ago, making elaborated safety reports and recommendations are actually frowned upon (perhaps it makes them feel inferior, or something, I don't know). But fact is, locals are treated a LOT different in this airline than Expatriates, or do you deny that, too? I suggest you should stop by one of those very entertaining safety meetings one day, which I am sure you already have... you would you like to comment on one of those, perhaps?
By the way, are you aware a Level 3 event for an Expat is also a "dismissible" offense (not just slandering on Pprune ) while the local pilot pays around US$300 to make it "go away"? A very nice Vietnamese Captain actually confirmed that to me (don't expect me to name him here!).

Now, I'm not sure what Bus Junkie was asking about the parking issue, but... 🤔

Oh, and one more thing: "giving someone a medal" is a metaphor; a figure of speech; an analogy, its origin being from the philosophy of rhetoric. Its like giving someone a "high five"; a pat on the back, a "thumbs up"; a "good job, mate"; I'd suggest a little Shakespeare to lighten up the day, perhaps?
But I'm not here to provide you with English lessons; you seem to manage that on your own pretty well.

So, purely as a rhetorical question to you, IA, why do you really feel offended?
