CAA have tried for months to close them down but to no success! Anyone at CAA drive a red Ferrari??? :E

Yep, pretty close, CAA have not been trying to shut him down at all, he has a few minions in the Dept in his back pocket, as has quite correctly been mentioned, smoothing his way through.
I was present in company when he was loading fare paying passengers into the King Air that he flew down as PIC with 4 bars pasted on his shoulders, with his PPL licence, the call was made to a certain Part 135 inspector to get his butt out to Rand and stop the fiasco before it departed, his reply; "Ah, it's been such a long week, I don't have the energy right now, I will be there to confront him when he returns on Monday"
He was duely told, that should anything happen to the flight, we would hold him personaly responsible, to which he said OK he would call us back in 5 min, well still waiting for the call, and his phone was swiched off the rest of the weekend.
This corupt thieving ba:mad:ard is not alone on the take.:ugh::ugh:

Digging helps
 
The licence they piggyback on does have Part121 and Part135. I however don't want to mention names. :oh: It is always nice to hear both sides of the story and then the truth. How about it Sabian Air? Give us your side of these allegations.

I also heard from the engineer that worked on a certain Seneca mentioned (with fuel problems) that the fuel cross-feed had its plumbing back to front, so when the pilot tried to cross-feed, it tried to do this from the empty tank. This seems to have been omitted in the original story. In this case, you certainly can't blame the pilot.

BEWARE! I may join CAA sometime and I WILL come after you.
Not a threat-I PROMISE!


Well, judging by what I've read here you look like a perfect candidate.

Desperate Wannabe 26th Nov 2007 17:24


Also a Seneca without windscreens
This is because it has a sherriff's attachment order pasted all over it:D


There was a brand new Merc S500, registration Sabian1
:=

This is the the level of deceit we are talking about, that is no S500 much less new, it is a facelift and badge job on a much lowlier and older model.:* FACT

Does this perhaps apply to the ladies as well?? (For 'badge' read "b@@b") :E

Desperate Wannabe 26th Nov 2007 18:16

Madherb:D:D:D:D, sharp as a tack, that is affirm, you hit the nail on the head. They didn't always look like that.

Biggles of Africa 27th Nov 2007 05:14

This is like from a movie, it is hard to believe that someone can operate so far outside the law and not be brought to book, that is why there are checks and balances, surely?
I think there must be another side to the story, C.A.A would never allow this, that is what they are there for.

Shockwave Sam 27th Nov 2007 06:02

Well CAA-UK or FAA would'nt allow it but not so sure about the SA CAA!!

LJP 27th Nov 2007 07:41

There never were modification applications made to CAA for the round windows. Reskinning the left and right sides of the aerie does not constitute structural work according to the Sabian powers that be

Swedish Old Man 27th Nov 2007 09:33

B@@b Job
 
Madherb,

Too bad your girlfriend hasn't got ones like hers! Aren't you jealous??:eek:

JetPark 27th Nov 2007 09:41

Oh, so things are finally catching up with this so-called operation. What a bunch of :mad: they are. I had some minor dealings with them - jokers of note and to be avoided.

Certainly cash only! Short arms and deep pockets!:rolleyes:

Swedish Old Man 27th Nov 2007 11:03

Payment
 
Well, I have flown for Sabian Air for quite some time now and I can tell you that they always pay me upfront for every flight. I dont even have to ask!! At the moment, this is the best cmpany I have ever worked for. I am of the beleif that some of you have nothing better to do than to badmouth this company. You should be ashemed!

Desperate Wannabe 27th Nov 2007 11:23

Not going to take that bait, :ok:

Captain Perelli 27th Nov 2007 11:49

To Jimmy The Gong
 
Al capone is MILD in comparison to you!

Have you attached any circuit breakers to HOBBS meters lately?
Sold and "low time" aircraft as a result thereto?

People DIE because of you! You are a disgrace to the aviation industry.

Danmar 27th Nov 2007 12:01

Jimmy The Gong
 
I can only agree with Captain Pereli... Thanks for :mad: me into buying one of your aircraft! I could help but hear you baosting on how you rolled the Sabian Piper Chieftain! Glad they canned you!

4HolerPoler 27th Nov 2007 12:04

AAL 27th Nov 2007 12:10

Good one 4HP, even without the confirmation there could be no doubt. Probably the gentleman in question himself.

JetPark 27th Nov 2007 12:25

:D the comment made by swedish old man was soooo obvious - in so far as origin of the writer is concerned - it is a laugh a minute.

No way, what a t@sser, :yuk::yuk::yuk::yuk:

Well caught, you should play for England:ok:

4HolerPoler 27th Nov 2007 12:50

Just for the record, both Captain Perelli as well as Danmar also work for Sabian.

Or, at least are registered with sabian.com email addresses.
