aviation in nigeria
infra red camera
hi flights man unfortunately the airplane hasnt been located how sad,things turn out this way each time a plane gets missing or is involved in an accident and lives are lost, i bet you in a short period you would hear nothing bout the missing airplane again,did u mention infra red lol pls brotha we are far from that at this point in time i doubt if the emergency search and resue agency has any of that truth is there is so much corruption in the aviation sector in nigeria billions of dollars disappear into thin air from time to time and this funds are provided to upgrade the sector,yet we call ourselves the giant of africa
most of our pilots are so far some of the best in the world,trained to standard and maintain a high level of dicipline and attitude towards the profession but unfortunate some so called men on board wouldnt let the necessary changes occur
i know if this incident were to happen in the us or elsewhere it wouldnt take up to an hr to locate the aircraft or crash site
i pray someday soon there would be a revolution in the aviation industry here,like i say aviation goes beyond having brand new airplanes and inventories etc its all bout attitude,and the passion its about positive ideas nd growth
let me sight an example, the college of aviation technology in zaria is so far the biggest flying school in africa as a whole and one of the biggest in the world shocked to know, the college at a certain point in time almost lost its glory and status quo as one of the best in the world, some of the brightest pilots in the industry had their training in zaria so also traffic controllers
not long back over 2billion naira was allocated to the college now if u ask what and how it was utilized i dont know
the college has over 30 training airplanes amongst other facilities but yet you hardly find the students flying as the law requires in respect to training in the past some students spent bout 5 yrs trying to get a standard pilots license which is still not recongized in some parts of the world like the jaa and faa licenses
a new student is made to pay about 8million naira for a standard pilot training program well i think the word standard should be exempted from the statement.
we still have a long way to go.
i know there is a high demand for professional pilots in the nigeria aviation industry due to the entrance of new airlines and operators.
the older generation pilots are getting to the age of retirement i have come across a couple of them who have served the industry for over 20years earnestly but sadely not recognised
just few airlines and operators are willing to sponsor young men and women who cannot afford to pay for their training but have the desire to fly.
the banks are not any better in supporting student loans for those who want to fly but cant afford it
these and so many other issues that need to be addressed
i hope someday soon a strong body comprising of pilots,atc crew etc who be formed to address and find possible ways around this long lasting problems
nigeria pilots and atc are great men and women and i would always respect and love them for what the stand for
