Dear Yogibear, I have to back Malagant on this one I am afraid.

He is right, Nwide did us an EX-SAA Captain and they did have to fly around France because of the over 60 rule.

And yes Yogi there are other EX-SAA guys that are flying the 73.
Have a great day and fly safe.

The rumour is it will start in March and that salaries will be back paid during the first week in Feb.

Does anyone have confirmation of this.

Cantoun Air International has it died a death

The rumour is that Cantoun Air International is poised to start for the second time.

I am led to believe that crew are to be recalled from the 4 corners of the globe to start training at the beginning of March 06. This is for a first flight in April.

Will the previously employed crew be as eager this time to leave their jobs again and join this Airline? Or will it not get off the ground this time due to a vote of no confidence on the part of those that were previously employed.

I believe the crew are still waiting for their salaries from the month of November 2005 onwards.

I'm certain the list of those who would step in to fill the places left by those who decide not to return is as long as your arm.

Where do we sign up?
