Who are these guys, and where do they fly? I can't find a website. What other planes do they fly, and anyone know about rosters? I think they have black E120 Brasilias. Cheers.

They're based out of LAGOS and fly mainly domestic inside Nigeria,they own a bunch of EMB 120 and rumour has it that they're planing to buy some more planes.

Where would this airline rank in carriers for Nigeria? Which airlines should a pilot want to work for in order, in Nigeria? Cheers.

Donkey Duke Associated is one of those "i could not get anything else"airline jobs in Nigeria.
Presently major on going legal squabbles,as to ownership.The airline was sold,but new owners never completed payment,so old owners took control back.

They also operate charters with HS125,and cargo contracts with a 727 freighter.

They operate 120 on scheduled services to Benin city.

Would that be the "VFR only" airport in Benin City, then? Operating "scheduled services" during the long periods of poor visibility one finds in Nigeria must be a sheer pleasure and quite the professional challenge. Whoever the lucky fellow is who gets this job poling EMB-120s in and out of there, please get back to us and tell us how that is.
