FOOEY
Ring any bells?

QUOTE:

Anybody else sick to death of hearing about the pay and conditions increasing :mad:
Well, I am, and also sick of being the lowest paid jet pilot in HK ( inc corporate ), probably not far from lowest in Asia.:ugh:
Its been nice flying with you guys/gals, most of you are waisted at HKA.
I know there probably isnt much call for a middle aged pilot with 15000+ hours, 9000 jet command,:rolleyes: but I'm going to give it a go, and as soon as I get a bite, I'm outta here.
Suggest you do the same, I doubt this place will ever get any better, you will grow old and grey waiting for it to.

Hmmmm. Gee, dunno Fooey, where would I get that idea from? Be honest buddy, you don't really have that time, now do you? Maybe your best friend does!
Keep up the good work..Don't 4get to update your CV. Or do you really want to stay?

Damn it caught out.
No, you are right, I love it at HKA, and want to die there ( which is on the cards )
Who should I send my resume to :confused: , I'm just like you, a no-hoper stuck at HKA 'cos nobody else will employ me.
please help
signed, Desperate

Sorry buddy, you're nothing like me!
Just take the advice you so freely give others..Just leave and get a life. With all those 9000 jet command make believe hours you may have a hard time finding something, but Good luck.

I bet you see big green monsters at night too!

Fooey BTW
Just to help you out with the CV. Don't bother sending it to HKE. I'm pretty sure mythbuster is only joking!
Good luck.

Kids please to be staying calm! All is well here at HKA and our new team is working hard to make thing better. IR is make promise that we all be high pay jet pelots! soon

Jeez Diablo, just can't help yourself can you? Most of us HAVE moved on and are now employed by reputable airlines as opposed to the epitemy of an unprofessional general aviation circus that you call home. Funny isn't it, the only people that remain at "wally world" by choice or who do not have an exit strategy, are the d1ckhead losers like yourself who are incapable of gaining employment elsewhere and so rely on outfits like HKA having to scrape the bottom of the barrel to keep you in a job. I actually pitty you a great deal, having to look in the mirror every day and tell yourself over and over again "I have a wonderful job, every day in every way it's getting better and better and better". Good luck to you anyway hope the self hypnosis works eventually.

Flight Cancellations
 
Interesting to see that flight cancellations are now happening due to crew shortages. I guess it doesn't help that the new team can't seem to get any new crew checked to line.

May we live in interesting times.

Give me a break Hoofharted, or should I say Hongkongfooey! You're so transparent!

hongkongfooey 15th Apr 2008 07:17

..........I want some of what Diablo is smoking, or maybe he is just high on life, working for the most professional, best paying outfit in asia :E

Arrowhead 15th Apr 2008 07:27

Diablo

You sounds like a top guy :ok: You should come and work at Air Macau - you would fit right in with all the others just like you :D

ps Air Macau mgmt is the same

Kermit750 15th Apr 2008 08:31

Its the first time I have gone back over this forum, since losing our jobs. See you boys have been very productive. HaHa.

Think we should all get down to the Star Bar and settle this like men. Or not really men whatever the case may be. Snigga snigga! Aint gonna happen.

For those that were helped with a HKA style exit strategy I hope you arent involved in this crap. Lets all meet for another hug at the Aviator in a few months hey?

Hoofharted 15th Apr 2008 16:15

The working class can kiss my arrrrse
I've got a well paid job at last,
I'm out at work and off the dole
You shove HKA up your hole!!
:p

Sue Ridgepipe 16th Apr 2008 11:54

Noticed recently a shiney new B737 sitting on the tarmac in HKE colors, but rego seemed to be similair to the ones HKA use. Are these guys trading planes between each other now, or is there no one left at HKA to fly them?

Allou dri 17th Apr 2008 01:27

another NEW one joining the fleet...cheers!

hongkongfooey 18th Apr 2008 23:53

Do some study or something Hoof, you have way too much time on your hands :E

Kamikaize 19th Apr 2008 02:45

Does Anyone know if Gabriel Capdevilla is still with hka???

Leaving HKA 19th Apr 2008 09:43

He is, but I am sure he is smart enough to be making other plans.

GR Departure
 
Good to see GR at the Aviator after his departure from HKA. He is a good man, and always tried to achieve the best for the staff. All the best with your new career!

HKA "management" is now fully in the hands of a very inexperienced group. The only way they can continue is the fact that they have the HKCAD in their back pocket due to "Eric the Bedwetter" being their pet. Who knows what they have done to keep him onside. With Oasis now gone, it will be interesting to see if the goings on at HKA/HKE come under more scrutiny from the Government, or Eric manages to keep on pulling the wool over their eyes.

:uhoh:

Capt Vertigo 20th Apr 2008 09:48

Sad to see GR go.. :sad: but the new management (SINGAS) claims to be 'the best in the world' ..!! :(

See the threads under 'Great Wall' (Far East & South East Asia) will give a good description of these lying 'SINGAS' ... wherever they go. :ugh:

Good Luck!!

Our Man From KFC
 
Rumours circulating that "The Bedwetter" has booked himself on a B777 conversion course. Perhaps even he is seeking insurance.

Hints For The Course:
When taking off on 07, Lantau Isalnd is on the right.
When taking off on 25, Lantau Island is on the left.

There, that just about covers it.
:mad:
