Kaptin M, You missed it again. Nakry and the girls flew with the dregs of aviation many years ago. Now they're flying with guys who won the Victoria Cross equivalent for common sense!!

You won the Victoria Cross equivalent for stupidity.

You guys were the ones who treated them so badly because you were bitter and twisted that one of the FAs told me your lot treated them 'like poor people'.

There are three local pilots now checked out. I'm sure there will be more in time.

Loose Connection, perhaps your handle should be 'Loose Brain!'

Mainwheel, the town of one legged beggars?? Leaning toward poor taste. As for photos of exploits, and I'm not sure what you mean, no, just a few aircraft photos.

Just curious Kap,

"Perhaps you should talk with Kaptin M who applied early and was rejected...."

Is this true ?

Cool

Arctaurus, no it is not true.
I have challenged the kid to present evidence that will stand up in a court of law to support his UNTRUTHFUL, slanderous accusation. Click here to read it:
http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthr...5&pagenumber=3

Additionally I have called him a LIAR in respect to this accusation, which now leaves ME open to legal action by him, but which of course he cannot take, as his accusation(s) are LIES.

He is one of those scabs that fits the definition to a tee - apparently however, from his previous comments, he enjoys the SCAB title.

Hey Dexter nice post - scabbing on a scab!!
You ARE going to send/post here the details that Dexter has asked of you, aren't you kid??!!

Nakry and the girls flew with the dregs of aviation many years ago.
Sorry kid, I got that one in ahead of you - AGAIN. There's no prize for runner-up - a position you have been holding for some 14 years now.
Seems as though you guys are going to continue to have to get used to playing second fiddle to US for the rest of your miserable lives.

Don't normally comment on this kind of topic, though I have read a lot of it, however.. phnompenhkid I don't think it is an appropriate comparison for either side of this particular incidents participants as having a VC equivalent of anything. Particularly when the blokes who were awarded the VC usually obtained it by giving their lives for the blokes they were serving with. A rather ironic comparison given the subject matter and just a little bit disrespectful towards the VC holders. The VC still means a lot to a lot of people and is not something to be taken lightly.

the gravy stroke™

glad mon kapitano emm explained WHO it is thats MISERABLE around here. i knew it wasnt me since in 89 i was too busy trying to orchestrate smoking my first cheroot with a female of the opposite sax.

but i was confused by these old f@rts that just wont stop.
bit like the rabbit with the duracells™ that wont quit.
they just keep at that bone boring the new gen of smart new drivers senseless.
bit like the old f@rts at the rat they wont quit either. or move on...

but dont get me wrong i do support KM and the rest being of a greedy nature myself. i do tend to show a preference for max ca$h/min effort which is why i became a profe$$ional pilate. thats right punters why just the other day i demonstrated my skills yet again by logging more hours with my eyes shut than open

hey whos miserable up there in nambodia anyway? anybody? Bueller? km says youre miserable is this true?

tell you what the scab issue's DEAD. like zed and chemical ali. no one cares anymore.
the new issue's who's miserable? and who's hanging on too tight, gonna turn in his wings... like that soft-on at the start of top gun who flew like an Iracki fighter jock anyway. served him right putting pics of his kid on the panel like that. the old f@rts i fly with would straighten him out on THAT airmanship issue by golly by gosh.

dunno about the VC and Bar but I do know guys who come back from service in bangkok with the VD and Scar. Nasty business....

as you were

Talking

hey mo...bro...you bin holdin' THIS handle quite a while now. Not like the first 2 or 3, that got you booted pretty fast.
Bit like ole phnompenhkid - alias Captain Schlonger, alias Kaptin_X.
For a guy who professes to be a qualified shrink (with a private business in SYD), you'd really expect a little better from him, if you were one of his patients.........guess that's why he's been relegated to the "Third World" (his terminology to describe the inhabitants there, not mine), as a pilot of a 1 aircraft "airline"!!

Talking about cutting your own knees out from under yourself, good ol' ppkid is doing a pretty good job of that, all by himself, isn't he!!

The other ex-AN pilots who are up in PP must have felt that they were on a pretty good wicket - until ppkid told all and sundry that the job's a piece of p!ss, the food and booze is cheap, and the ladies pretty.

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot!!

The Dexters of the world - and I guess their numbers are about to increase dramatically, due to the GW2 and SARS - are now looking at MEKONG AIRLINES as a suitable venue to spend some R&R (by the Tonle Sap) and get paid - even if it IS only USD3,000 per month - for the pleasure.

On ya phnompenhkid!!

Betcha the other ex-AN guys on the B737 in Phnom Penh, with Mekong Airlines are REALLY thanking you for your "enlightening" posts on PPRuNe.

KM, As always, most of your dribble is not worth commenting on, but one item is.

Just a short while ago, you were accusing us of being paid US$8500 a month, which was way too much in your eyes. Now it's only US$3000 per month. Get it right son!

As for the job being a piece of pi$$. All flying is. Anybody who says otherwise is having a lend of himself. Of course, if you're not up to speed, then it could be difficult. And saying that the beer is sweet and the ladies pretty is hardly shooting yourself in the foot. I think you make have used the wrong expression there.

The issue of identities - you have some wrong. I'll say no more than that, but some are incorrect.

There was a time when CX, QF, and no doubt numerous others, were one aircraft airlines. I'm not suggesting that Mekong will ever be a huge airline, rather a niche operator, but just because it only has one aircraft doesn't exclude it as an airline. No doubt you work for a much larger organization where pilots are paid much more, but we can't all have that. These days there is much more in my life than $$. I made enough of those at your expense over the past 14 years as you keep telling me.

Alistar, it was a light hearted comparison and with the EQUIVALENT of the VC, not a VC. If you follow these posts, you will note that I condemned the 89ers for comparing themselves with WWII diggers and holocaust survivors, so I'm not about to fall into that line of stupidity myself.

Incidentally, the three local pilots here tell me that they quiclkly tired of your constant reference to the events of 89, and even after they told you they weren't interested, had nothing to do with it, nor wanted to. Now that's really something coming from a Khmer.

As for Dexter's posts, they're about as articulate as yours, so I thought you and Dexter may have been one and the same, so didn't bother.

Arctaurus, he didn't answer your request. He did aply, and has admitted so in a previous post; the ony itemin contention is whether he was rejected or otherwise. That information is now not available because of the non-existence of Ansett.

Talking

Are you REALLY as thick as you come across in your posts, phnompenhkid?
It was Dexter who indicated that HE would be willing (and wished to apply for) your job with Mekong Airlines for USD3,000 remuneration.
It was you, or Angkorwot (or similar handle) who boasted that you were receiving USD8,500 tax free!
Get it right son!

A "light hearted comparison and with the EQUIVALENT of the VC". I wasn't aware that Hawke's government awarded any of the scabs a medal, kid - the 30 pieces of silver paid by The Fat Man was about the closest you came, and I'm certain that soldiers awarded the Victoria Cross for bravery in battle, would tear strips off you for suggesting that scabs in an industrial dispute - those that slunk away from Hawke's declared "war" ("Go out this time boys, and it's war") - were given ANYTHING "the EQUIVALENT of the VC".


And so we come to yet ANOTHER of the kid's distortions of the truth, and subsequent LIE, when we read his last sentence,
Arctaurus, he didn't answer your request.
One only need re-read, Arctaurus' question, which was,
"Just curious Kap,

"Perhaps you should talk with Kaptin M who applied early and was rejected...."

Is this true ?
"

To which my reply was,"Arctaurus, no it is not true."

It IS true that I re-applied, and withdrew my application (in the presence of the then AFAP Brisbane Branch Chairman) within 3 days of the application being submitted.

The allegation made by phnompenhkid - and one for which he states he has "solid proof" - is a LIE.
I have challenged him to present this "solid proof" in the format of a Statutory Declaration with himself as deponent, or ANYONE of his choosing.
As a Stat Dec is a legal document that carries severe penalties for untruthful statements, phnompenhkid is now attempting to squirm his way out of backing up his drivel (note the spelling, kid...and quite an appropriate choice too, drivel - Run at mouth or nose like child; talk childishly or idiotically. Your user name is ENTIRELY apt, phnompenhkid!

You have made what I consider a defamatory allegation, ppkid, so now present your "solid proof", or make a retraction!

Kaptin M.
The Vitriol in your posts gets very tiresome. The suggestion of T.C.o.B. in the SIA tailstrike thread, you should take to heart. "Those pilots unwilling to take responsibility for their actions, should aggressively seek other employment". Read actions as to mean in or out of the cockpit.

Hahahahahaaaa..... hilarious! One childish imbecile accusing someone else of being exactly what he, himself, has cornered the market on. I don't think there's room for TWO K.M.s around here.

(Still laughing to myself here...)

I'm afraid the term 'dribble' was intentional.

KM, I have never indicated, let alone boasted, that I waspaid US$8500 with Mekong. Not once. You made that accusation, but I never acknowledged it. If I was though, it wouldn't be excessive, because RAC paid US10K to Malaysian for a Captain, and I believe over 7 was paid as salary, and that was some time ago.

Perhaps I didn't understand Dexter's post, because after the first line, I ceased reading. That style of writing can be amusing, but not for long. I had read the previous one and resolved not to do so again.

Prospector, you got him.

I reckon if KM was Mike Tyson, his trainer would never let him come out for the next round. Every time, someone hits him on the chin, sits him on his ar$e, and yet he keeps coming back. There has to be a limit to the number of times he's prepared to be publicly humiliated.

Arctaurus, he's made the admission, so you've nailed him too. No such thing as half pregnant, indeed!!! An appropriate response would have been, 'it's partly true,' but he denied it in toto. No coercion or intimidation though. He knows well, as I articulated above, that the evidence is now long lost after the collapse of Ansett. I'm not in a position to apologize or withdraw purely because the evidence is not available, so I'll have to live with the threat of legal action because I slandered or defamed a nom de plume on the net. I am fearful that the process server will knock on my door in Phnom Penh with a slip of paper in his hand calling for my lynching. Such is life. Another cold Angkor lager, and a laugh with the boys coming on I feel.

oicur12, I may well have been one of them, and thanks for the good wishes. It is indeed a malicious, vindictive mind that would wish otherwise for former colleagues, be they from 2 years ago, or 14 years ago. I wish all the 89ers well.

KM, I need to know how we guys, whoever we guys may be, will play second fiddle to you guys. This seems to me to be a statement that meet all qualifications for the title 'epitome of stupidity', but I'm becoming well acccustomed to that type of discussion from you.

I can see Woomera swooping and closing this thread on the grounds that 'it is going nowhere' and it isn't.

Kap,

Despite some of the inflammatory comments thus far, I would be interested in your reasoned response as to why you reapplied to go back to work in the first place.

Your admission just seems so contrary to the content of numerous posts you have made on this subject.

Well, what a pity, just as this is getting interesting the kid throws in the towell and wants Woomera to bail him out!

Why am I not surprised?

PPK seems you are the one with the "Loose Brain", gloating about the fact that some locals have just checked out.
As an Expat DON'T you realise that when the locals get up to full speed (which they will)

You and your Scab lot will be out of there so fast you won't have time to pack your $1 knapsack.

Anyway SARS is going to do that for you.



(Maybe there's an anagram in there re Scabs - I'm sure Kaptin M could come up with one)
