For those who'd like to know.

The Incident that put Former Capt. T.S. out of arik: As told by fellow Pilots… T.S. and F/O(shall go unnamed) operated ABV-GOM flight in the CRJ900. F/O Had been signed off of line training and line checked one day prior to the flight. Captain T.S. and New F/O Operated flight to Gombe routinely. On the return flight GOM-ABV captain TS flew at a undetermined flight level that according to KANO CTRL was not assigned. Captain T.S. and F/O flew at this undetermined flight level until opposite traffic was reported and a Traffic Advisory message appeared on the Primary. Captain T.S. and F/O instead of responding with caution to the Traffic Advisory(as trained) Captain T.S. took action or instructed F/O to take action and the pilot's unfortunately took action that further induced the problem thus incurring a RA or RESOLUTION ADVISORYwith the conflicting traffic. The controller reported that he had not cleared the arik crew to that level. A report was to be made… Captain T.S. knew that this was her final chance as she was fresh off suspension and furthermore remained in a probationary state. Captain T.S. created a false story for her and her F/O. Stating that the two advisory were separate of each other (basically one on each leg.) Management found out and both pilots attempted to quelch the story and furthermore the first officer wisely came clean thus saving his job. Capt. T.S. was voted off the sinking Arik ship and is now in Training for B737 Capt. at Air Nigeria…go figure. They had given her the choice of Resignation or take a Downgrade at Arik...

Go to ASKY based out of Lome ... don't waste time here unless you pay to play airline pilot.

He is currently Chiep Pilot/DFO for Safi Airways (afghanistan) He and M.S. the former head of OCC and several others from Arik are now starting up this company known as the Airline of Afghanistan. All pilots are based in Dubai and fly a 320 via Dubai, Kabul and Delhi.

Yes it makes you wanna puke doesnt it. Flew like 1 sector and got suspended for flying with an invalid medical. But then left for another airline claiming to have hundreds of hours on the type and even put these fictitious hours in his logbook. Deplorable reptilian man.

JULY 10

All pilots to stop flying July 10th in leiu of June salary. Put Managment back on track... Locals and expats alike have the chance to put salaries back on course regardless of what deals or upgrades etc. they may be expecting. One thing is certain, your salary is late, you work for free, and the A330/340 upgrade will not happen. As of now we have all lost 1 months salary...surely it is not amiss for nothing. Management has created a way to recoup your pay and keep you endentured to them.

Stop cutting deals with FRI. and management.
Stop flying Illegally and for free.
Stop dreaming and get real.
Pay your bills.

Re the earlier comment re RH 'starting up' Safi Airways. This airline has been operating for quite awhile but does appear to have problems retaining senior staff. One prompt for them to leave is when they are asked to base out of Kabul!! I know a couple of guys who this happened to. Mind you they do pay on time which, judging from this thread, seems to be a dream for Arik employees
