Airlink promotions

[techman12]

wake up!! Mango, SAA and even Comair doesnt compare to all the SHT at Airlink... JVJ and RF are both in the same bed.. they think alike.. they dont care about anyone in their company..! similar to VB at Nationwide.. remember what happened there!! - link also on similar path! watch out Link pilots.. rather move on ASAP.. MANGO SAA and Comair looking.. get your CV's out there!!

[NOTOT]

techman12, your input is appreciated, thanks!! For those of you at LNK keep your heads up and resign with fury, don't know what i am doing wrong , but i still like the life-style after 9 years, jvj might be a problem but he can try, the ****ker lies to your face and the CCMA is waiting for him, been threre.............!!!!!!!!!!!

[techman12]

the problem however is that JVJ and RF dont care about the union.. I think they like pisg pilots off.. this is they way it goes: managment piss pilots off.. pilots off to solidarity.. union get a fight doing.. 6months later CCMA strike.. then quickly they solve it, the next day.. managment piss pilots off.. here we go again...

keeps on repeating itself.. I know.. I've been there aswell!! for a Long time!!

Guys the grass is greener on the otherside!! I promiss!!

NOTOT, you aint the only one who enjoys the lifestyle, been around for a while as well. It is unlikely that LNK will go the same way as NW. Unlike Pricknell, RF is not the mayor shareholder, not even by a long shot. Investors to answer to. Question is, are the investors aware of what is going on? Do they know that a HR manager goes around saying 'die pilots moet bietjie vasgevat word'. Do they know of the threatening memos in our postboxes? 'You'll get fired for this, you'll get dismissed for that'. Sure there are changers but deal with that, don't generalise, this seriously pisses grown-ups off. Mister Investor, those you are trusting with your money are scaring people, who are commited, away with their caveman tactics. And without people to fly airplanes, no return on your investment.

Guys the grass is greener on the otherside!! I promiss!!

Take a moment for once and focus on what's Great about Airlink

• Our agreed salaries have always been paid on time
• All licence and Medical renewal claims have always been paid back
• We are always kept current at their expense
• Our bonuses have always been paid
• If you fly on a day off you get double snt and get to negotiate another day off

The list goes on

[techman12]

nemesis mk1 WAKE UP!!

Our agreed salaries have always been paid on time - WRONG... last year they didnt give longivity!! as Agreed!! ..

All licence and Medical renewal claims have always been paid back- might be.. but they only pay a max of R350 for a medical!! yet it is closer to the R550 mark!! so you still loose!

We are always kept current at their expense - WRONG some pilots haven't been to sim for over 16months!!

Our bonuses have always been paid- WRONG calcalated pro-rata for the guys/gals that have been there less that 12months.. not a full 13th cheque as per contracts!!

If you fly on a day off you get double snt and get to negotiate another day off - WRONG no double SNT nope.. make sure you check that you actually get SNT.. negotiate a day off.. yes because as per LAW you need 3 days off in 14!! not cindness from link I'm afraid..

nemesis mk1 wake up!!

some did not get longivety but it got fixed up with backpay (iow SORTED OUT)

utter rubish, my last medical was well over that and i got my backpay promptly

WRONG some pilots haven't been to sim for over 16months

The truth is they are current. All required training is up to date

Our bonuses have always been paid- WRONG calcalated pro-rata for the guys/gals that have been there less that 12months.. not a full 13th cheque as per contracts!!

What is wrong with that? What do you expect? Work for one month and get full bonus?

WRONG no double SNT nope.. make sure you check that you actually get SNT.. negotiate a day off.. yes because as per LAW you need 3 days off in 14!! not cindness from link I'm afraid..

if you take a little time and monitor your income, you will see that you get double s&t. I dont think that link is "cind" but Link is reasonable

[buck2rogers69]

Nemisis Mk1, mate wake up, u talking crap!!! they have definately not paid correctly and without a fight to rectify the problem. They paying new captains less than what other 1st year captains are getting, know this as I have seen a payslip and its not what some other 1st years are gettin!!!

[techman12]

buck2rogers69 tell him!! He looks like a "new" airlink pilot... open up your eyes!!! link is not complying to the rules in the term THEY set!!

[taxilight]

nemesis mk1: Maybe you should take some of that double s&t you are getting and have your head checked. Do you braai with jvj or have you just been at link for less than 1 week??

[techman12]

ass licking... thats what it is!!

[nemesis mk1]

techman12

You guys have run out of arguments. Now that you have seen and understood the facts, you have nothing left but to respond like that.

[nocandoo]

nemesis mk1:The facts are quite clear. Looks like you are either blind or just completely oblivious to what's going on. Heard from a reliable source that jvj called mango to prevent a certain gentleman from leaving. Mango told him exactly what he could go and do with himself. He does not seize to amaze! At least he got his money owed to him by link, even though it took a laywers letter.

[techman12]

jip heard it aswell!

[nocandoo]

awful truth: Very kind of you!!! Heard that link will now be using "wet lease training captains" from the uk. Wonder how they will be teaching link's SOP's and how the Pietermaritsburg approaches will go. Also heard the link instructors are so Pd off they are going to resign when this takles place. Feel sorry for the lads who are paying huge bucks for this compromised training. They say there is a time for everything. Perhaps the time to move on has come.

[Q4NVS]

and how the Pietermaritzburg approaches will go

Excuse my ignorance, but are you implying that Link Drivers are the only one's in the world that can hack these approaches...Oh, thought not!

[techman12]

heard aswell that Link is so short on training capt's that they cant even afford to send any to the UK to do simulator training! WOW.. and the most senior JS41 pilot who is suppose to go onto the 146 has been tod that again due "operational" req. he cannot move across!! - after 8years on the JS41 and over 6000hrs on type.. he must add a bit more.. VERY SAD INDEED! - I would move on if I was him!

[nemesis mk1]

Phase one is about to begin.
There is going to be transformation in airlink.

What do you mean by that? a pipe dream i suppose. What about the toothles union? Im sure the numbers are close to 50%.

[techman12]

most of the members leaving the company.. new pilots not joining.. more like 20% and decreasing! - pitty.. its falling apart..

[buck2rogers69]

Well if the Union Falls Apart, who knows what will happen, JVJ would then have most certainly achieved his objection.

The senior guys should put a bit of pressure on the new hires to Join, come on guys, do it for those around you, you are screwing them and yourselfs.

All I can say is the writing is on the wall at Link, I would jump ship if I was there!!!!!
