Good Luck First Nation !!!

Paint jobs look fantastic, however, I hope that they better highlight the "First" script, perhaps with black trim around it?

I honestly hope they have the financing to knock on Arik's door, however Arik is doing a great job of not having a door to knock on soon

5N-FNB sighted in GAT at DNMM earlier today, i was told it looked sexier than on airliners.net!

Maybe its time to come drive a bus at home. Well, maybe not, who knows these days?

Is being African a requirement? If so, then being a Nigerian should keep one ahead of other Africans????

First Nation - Oh Sweet Nigeria -Oh Dear!!!!

I obtained the Algerian and Niger overflight permits for 5N-FNA/FNB/FNC for their recent ferry flights Canada - Nigeria

Deal was credit card with order...

Chief Pilot SR said "no problem".

FA in LOS ops gave me credit card details - refused by credit card company as "invalid card".

Promised new card....still waiting.....

I have dealt with a number of Nigerian operators over the past - some good some bad....

The money owing is not a lot...IT IS THE PRINCIPLE....

I will let you know if I ever get paid....

In the meantime ( with respect to my honest Nigerian clients )...

OH SWEET NIGERIA ....

Unhappy Odu K again?

@Velda you mean you were given a rubber card?Its too early in the game for such acts bordering on insincerity on the part of FN,I want to believe that this was truly an error,Beautyfully painted planes do not imply a change in the character of its suppposed Chairman,we all hope that this is not an Arik style operator in the making again,leopards we know never change thier spots.Guys the lure of Buses should not confuse you all,working for free a'la Arik is in the offing here,where crews have to offer discount for operators.Open your eyes very well,Oduk has not shed his garb,Eish
