To Woomera: Perth PJE pilots wanted

[exmouth2001]

I am disappointed that the thread was removed.The operator was not named.The facts
are

*the two fuel exhaustion cases are public record
*it is common knowledge in WA that this
operator demands descents at VNE
*it is common knowledge in WA that this
operator does not pay his jump pilots

Are people not allowed to warn other pilots about operators(without naming them)
that conduct ops in a way that many would consider highly questionable and dangerous.

Exmouth,

I've deleted two threads today regarding getting jump pilots and stopped the person responsible for them from posting as they couldn't take a hint.

I've got a 1000+ hours as a jump pilot and Danny is very experienced as well. We've never turned an engine over without being paid. Dropzones, especially tandem /AFF joints, are real money making machines and we're sick of them seeking malleable low time unpaid schmucks who can be pressurised into very bad habits.

Binning their seedy blandishments is our contribution to safety and careers and we will happily publicise any official reports regarding incidents at drop zones.

The fact that they resorted to advertising here is perhaps a good indication that their supply of "malleable low time unpaid schmucks" as Rob aptly put it, is running out.
