Get real.......they couldn't make two 300's work. Even if they talk about opening up to Naru, Kiribati, Norfolk etc it wont happen.

it's all true

Yes Air Vanuatu are expanding. But this expansion is only online (not the online as we know it but with their online bank account) The OD is getting BIGGER! The chinese twottas are here but for how long? Surely some heads must roll. Starting with you know who! (hint hint the friendly bear face)

Only one ****** in HR that needs to go..AB!
Engineering need some direction with some quality leadership. Not enough supervision on the locals

Some serious butt kicking needs to be done...the locals are becoming very slack in all areas.

The only expansion I see are some fat arses....no one doing their jobs.

I Come In Peace

Hello everyone,
I have been reading all your posts and decided to join in on the discussion of Air Van.

Firstly I am new to PPRUNE and I believe in peace in all areas of the company.

There have been several negative comments made about the management. But as for me, I can only make positive comments as they were very kind in taking me on. It is a great company to work for and I encourage any pilots who are interested in Air Van to certainly send in their details to them for considration. And hey we might even have the pleasure of flying together soon.

Have a great day!

Devilspoint

Devilspoint, they were very lucky that you would come fly for them for the money you are getting paid.

It is a great company to work for
Until you try to explain that it's against the law to work 10 days in a row.

Until your colleges start getting sacked with no reason given as they walk off the aircraft at the end of a duty.

Until you get an email containing your new contract, all your conditions changed and told to sign it , everyone else has, or you will be forced to resign.

Until you get ordered to take your annual leave or loose it then while on leave have it recalculated to find out you actually owe the company leave now.

Until they try to bond you $50,000 for you classic to NG conversion

The list goes on, not a reflection of most of the current management but the good guys days may be numbered!.

$alary

Hello lordofthewings,

Well actually the salary is very good. In fact I never really expected it to be that good when I first arrived here in VLI. It has enabled me to get set up with good accomodation and buy 4WD. What more could a guy want?

The guy I trained with used to fly in the wonderful land of Australia as well as here and he too is very happy with the conditions. No complaints on this end.

Catch ya later

Devilspoint (happy in paradise)

Just a nice guy

lordofthewings,
I'm just enjoying myself

And is it wrong to compliment my own country? For it is a wondeful land! If I've upset you by that statement I am so sorry buddy

Have a great day day LOTW's !

Dont Like It?

If you dont like it leave, or just sit back, have a kava.

As far as the south pacific goes, its still the best here.

busted

lordofthewxxxs more like it. You must be an engineer with a chip on your shoulder, a d/head or Paul Buzzybee. But I'd say you're all 3 Don't start pointing the finger mate.
