Hey nemesis mk1, running out of ideas?
Do we have to warm up old things like this?
Sounds just like Mango and their Captains->
Dig them up, warm them up, freshen them up with new paint and carry them up into a cockpit to pump fuel again!
The "let's all hate JVJ" does not work anymore, or does it?
PS: Flightsafety has nothing to do with people that pump air through an office chair!

i do not know much of what is happening inide link, but i always find it strange how management teams in aviation always has some idiot in the team that no one seems to want to get rid of and that seriously cheeses off the air crew!
why is there always place for these idiots in aviation? shouldnt we just start being managed by our own, meaning management pilots. i know however that alot of pilots want to stick to what they know best though, flying!
just a thought, because these guys just cannot seem to see the bigger picture of what they are managing!
for example: is it my imagination or are things looking better at SA CAA since capt j took the lead? there has already been some changes that has benefited alot of us!

Let me answer these questions for you
1. WHO is more important JVJ or the pilots?
PILOTS - JVJ can't fly
2. Why are so many people antagonistic towards JVJ?
Because he has made a hash of everything he's touched
3. Is it only the pilots who think he is an idiot?
Do you know how much ops hates him and seeking desperately to resign?
4. Will airlink be a nicer place to work for if that moron leaves?
YESSS!
5. Has JVJ ever had a positive track record?
NO!
6. Has an airline ever prospered with his presence?
NO!
7. Is jvj and his idiotic decisions of any benefit?
NO!
8. Does JVJ's moronic salary proposals make any one want to work there?
NO - this causes resentment among the personnel and they work with loathing toward AIRLINK
9. Is Airlink's flight safety at risk because of him?
VERY MUCH SO. He is the result of OPS making crew operate beyond duty time RISKING PASSENGER SAFETY.
10. Has Airlink benefited from him?
DUH! see question 9. He demorilises each and every staff member. Everyone is marking time till they get alternative employment.

Springbok614, AMEN to that comment about Capt J at the CAA! 
It is just soooooooo apparent, that a specifically qualified manager DOES make a complete difference to the functioning of an organisation! The old idea that you don't need to be qualified in the given direction to manage it such bull-****! It is so self serving and gets perpetuated ONLY by and for said managers (read: Damagers) to protect their own.
Look at the absolute mess so many 'ministers' make of their portfolios, also again under the guise of "I don't need to be qualified in this field to manage it".....
Remember, the pilots of an airline are a large group within an organisation, but with one significant difference- they are generally not too doff!

jvj out of here sooner than you think.
Romour has it that jvj is not flovour of the month with RF anymore. He has made uninformed and costly decisions while disregarding knowledgable peoples advise. Have you noticed just how quite he's become. Hmmm!? When Tracy left, the new guy Willie had his work cut out for him and he managed to swim while putting in 12-14 hour days. Do you think he gets any of the recognition? No just like Tracy, not even a thank you. Good luck in finding a replacement for Willie. You don't often find people who can do the job of four alone. I hear he does not even have a new job to go to. He is just leaving Link. Good Luck Willie and "Thank you!!!"(From the crew) Happyness is: Link without jvj and while you're at it, send his useless sidekick nuby with him.

Hey Linker's what is all the crying about?
Do you realy think you can decide if he stays or goes?
You can only
people that let themselfs be coerced!
Know your limits and have the balls to say no.
Write what you fancy, but make no mistake; he is not really stupid, so I don't think he will make you do illegal things unless you are willing to be partner in crime!
Good moaning!
