Hi,

As far as I'm aware this used to be IJS ltd based West London not too far from LHR. They were bought by the US fuel company AVCard (AVfuel). Had an interview there once and was offered position but chose to do something else.

They usually go after FAA Licenced people hence why I was offered the post.

They do flt planning for biz jets and with AVCard buying them they apparently picked up alot of business.
try
www.ijs.aero
or I remeber after the buyout doing a google search on AVcard and it brought me to their new website.

The Ops Manager was a thouroghly nice guy if you want to know more, Cash etc send me a PM

Cool

The nice ops manager u mention got the boot for sleeping on the job with a female colleague on a night shift when he was supposed to be training he.

The new ops manager a real nice guy and very knowledgeable individual dedicated to the job and definately not one to sleep on the job alone or with anyone.

Can't say too much for General Manager of the company - remainds me of Mr Blobby.

Devil Avcard

Come to think of it working at IJS was pretty boring even on a day shift - they only had about 5 aircraft in total since I joined them back in 1997 which only flew one a month - and to this date they still have the same (now being Avcard).

Good on you mate (JTM) - How is Gama (EGLF) ??

any news ref Turkey T*ts KH ? - still in KDFW ?

Hello AC,

KLH is now in KISM....

Apparantly all is well with JTM in EGLF....

As for Avcard only having 5 aircraft, well they have a few more than that and they fly a hell of a lot more that once a month as SDR in OEJN will testify!

How's things with u?
