"...OH SWEET NIGERIA...":confused:

WTF? The place is awful!

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 :ouch:

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?

We have ferry flight planned for march 31st 2011, if you can confirm your availability, we would like you to join the crew operating this flight and the assessment will be on April 7th.

They look familiar ..... were they the ex-Hellas ones (as seen on TV being repossessed by Mr Popovich recently ?)

..... he'll earn his money if he has to go down to MMIA to get them back next time !! :ooh: Lol ...

parisjet 12th Apr 2011 18:46

Anyone know what the requirements are for FO. I'm african and A320 rated but zero time on type?

NaijaNinja 12th Apr 2011 22:07

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

Evanelpus 13th Apr 2011 09:00

I hope they pay up better than Arik!

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 ....:ugh:

Gidigba 17th Apr 2011 04:54

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:=
