sled_driver71, i agree with you, most days they do between 4 and 6 sectors, depending on if its charter or rpt, even getting x hires at times as they dont have enough F100's, but guys keep the bagging going, and we will keep you on the straight and level, while xr just grows.........
MUII "what is xeptu going on about"
I thought I'd explained that pretty well back in post number 256. I'm going on about the issue of your Air Operators Certificate A320 RPT (High capacity)
Mate it's probably faster if you work for XR to speak with the manager overseeing the AOC project, who ever that may be, he can answer all your questions what the process is and what happens "on the day" the CASA army of inspectors take up residence for a couple of days in the office.
If you have any questions beyond that I'd be happy to explain best I can.
Goodluck All

Xeptu:
From your post 256:
From your following post 261
Oh yes they are!
As those 'in the know', know....PC was part of the original team!
Thus your own credibility is open to question...
Why would we seek answers from a proven dubious source??
From your post 256:
...none of the original team are still with XR today...
...none of my statements are incorrect...

Quite Correct, an honest mistake I didnt know PC was back with the XR team and acknowledged in post 264. He was indeed a member of the original team and as such probably won't have any issues from the flight ops end of the process.
For some reason you guys appear to be a little over passionate over this thread. I posted here in good faith, however it appears to be something of a pissing contest, over which I have no interest.
Good luck to you guys in XR with the AOC, hope it goes well for you on the day, and on that note I shall bid you farewell.

Dash 8, no it didn't. It's not even on the aoc yet so it isn't allowed to carry pax yet. It's done three "trial" flights and all have returned to Perth.
Xeptu, this is why we get our backs up because of bulls@$t comments like that.

I agree, it hasnt stayed overnight anywhere apart from perth.
And Xeptu, you still in that great long reply, have not answered my Q, maybe you should read it again, or maybe its cause you have no facts.

The final test
Skywest did their final evacuation demonstration today for CASA and received the thumbs up. Proving flight tomorrow then just wait for the final piece of paper from the regulator to see FNP in the sky. Well done guys.

When i went to the camp at 2230 that night they were all over the place getting rather drunk. And knocking off work that morning, dry mess door smashed, crap everywhere.
Can say a few people not happy with Skywest.
Still cant do the GNSS approaches at night hey?

Your wrong about it being the A320, but right about 100 odd blokes not being happy.

Good on the crews for not being scared to write it up. That is what makes Skywest a great company to work for.
