I know, amazing isn't it Flexibleresponse.....take a look at me....nearly twenty years of scamming my way through this industry and very successful as a matter of fact. Even with my superior intelligence but low moral due to hunger...... 148 million scammers that's what your superior intelligence tells you eh....
At least going by my superior intelligence we still haven't broken the world's records of scams according to superior world reports. But hopefully soon and believe me it would be more than a global recession or melt down.

Flexible response
Balewa, he seems to have something against Nigerians but you and I both know that there are plenty of lovely and worthy people in our country.
I'm not going to dignify his rubbish with a direct response, best to ignore him I think.

Thank you BALEWA and ediks,
You have demonstrated the folly of generalizing with your considerate and civil replies. I have removed the post with my ill-considered comment.

Thank You
Thank You for that, I know yours is a tongue in cheek statement regarding our responses to what you said but it was very unfair to accuse us all the way you did.
Regards and safe flying to you also!

Let daddy help you
Come out of flight school with no flying experience. Your daddy is the head of training for 737 fleet at Arik.....he gets Arik to bend all the rules pay for your CRJ 900 type rating, and then gets a waiver from NCAA emitting the requirement for expats to have 500 on type. Presto you have got a job.....but unfortunately everyone's daddy is not the 737 head of training at Arik.....Sorry dude life's tough

We cant chastise a father for helping his son, but we can wonder where all the local managers were when locals with type come knocking at the door and they say we want experienced crew as there is a possibility you might not make the line training or it might take longer to check the individual out. Guess we are our own worst enemies... fly safe guys/gals

before you speak you must get some facts straight. The company did not pay for his type, he got it himself. So what is the problem if he brought his son? We would all do the same for our own.

I got a similar offer, even called me in PNG from an actual Nigerian phone (+234 caller ID). They hacked into the Aviationjobsearch data base and got my details. Man these guys are getting good!

I really Thank GOD for everything!!!

Mistrust in Management
Why would you thank 'GOD' for everything?
When you:
I wish you all the best for the future my friend. However it might be worth remembering that in aviation (as with all other things in life) the outcome has little to do with imaginary friends and has everything to do with skills, ability and training.
Princess Stella would disagree I'm sure, reference her comments regarding the recent awful loss of life in the Associated accident departing LOS. That, she said, was an act of her own imaginary friend - some friend. And why would this friend do that? The shared friend you have thanked in helping you get a job with Arik also decided to snuff out a few innocent lives - logical?
Anyway all the best.
Kind regards

Abuja, Nigeria
Hello,
I was based in Abuja, Nigeria and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania 2012/13 first half. Feel free to PM me for additional details.
For I am in the USA and contracted in 2012 by a UK Agency. Although, I do have 3000 + Hrs, PIC Type Ratings, ATP. I was required for my position to pay all fees ($450 USD) to G3 Visa Company for my Buis. Visa. The employer stated they would repay on arrival which they did.
Yours,
UAV3
