Air South

[Northwind]

I see Air South is advertising for a Chief Pilot. Also lists experience on 1900D as desirable yet I don't see one listed in their fleet. Wondered if anyone had any info about the company.

[snoop doggy dog]

Don't know too much about them, however, they are advertising for crew every other week.

[kingRB]

I believe thats because they want to get one on line.

as I understand it, an applicant for the CP position left the office laughing never to be seen again when told the pay..

[roundaboutway]

no wonder they have been advertising for so long!

Any idea what was offered??

[Paul Alfred]

It is true..1900D coming on line very soon...;)

[roundaboutway]

Rumour has it they lost the crayfish contract and soon to lose the papers????

any truth to those ??

[Chadzat]

They are the rumours. ;)

1900 rocked up yesterday.

[sthaussiepilot]

I wondered when it got there, I saw her last night around 2:30am..

Quite a few missing around there now isnt there?

I only saw (from the air south fleet) ENT, EQB, and ZAO (I belive that was the 1900D... I think...)

[Natit]

Didn't they lose the papers to Jetcraft last year?

[sthaussiepilot]

Then what the hell was **** flying when I saw him just last week :bored:


- No they didnt loose the papers...yet, and crayfish contract I have no idea on

[Natit]

No they didnt loose the papers...yet

So what were Jetcraft using their C208 then latrer, a Metro flying to PLC and KSC at all ungodly hours for?

Or was this a different paper contract?

[sthaussiepilot]

I belive that Prop-craft have "The Australian" newspaper contracts

(Well according to the side of a metro)

[Chadzat]

Natit, you are partly correct. The paper contract in SA has gone back and forth almost every couple of years for nearly the past decade. It was with Jetcraft until they went tits up (and turned into Toll Express), then Air South have been doing it (again) since the beginning of the year.
