"I do feel sorry though for those, like you, who now find themselves out of work but my advice to them and you, is to do what I did."
You didnt do anything, you were sacked by post according to your own admission!
Have sat and read your bashing for long enough and yes I dont know who you are or your history but Ive read enough people reminding you not to be so single minded and resentful, so please take the hint and lets support these unfortunate chaps who through no fault of their own are now seeking gainful employment.
As a penalty for your continous bashing why not start a thread that shows you have a heart.
For the record, some of the information you place is informative and intresting but please take heed and have a change of heart

300psi - You'll notice that I started my post with "apparently". I wouldn't say either way If I believed it or not. I was just posting another story that I had heard, albeit from a fairly well informed source back at the bat cave!
Everyone can read the rumors and make their own decision.
I personally laugh at each and every rumor about Cougar, otherwise I'd be a gibbering wreck by now!

Very sad indeed I worked with a few of the chaps who moved to Cougar when they started up and I must admit those 72`s looked the dogs b**lox with that livery. Very sad to hear this sad news good luck to you all.

Chillwinston get your facts right - I was NOT sacked and have never been in my entire career. I was made redundant along with many others who spoke up for themselves. That aside, I'm glad to not be part of a twisted company.
As for having a heart, I have a big heart and will help anyone who needs to find another job. I found work within 24hrs of being made redundant. Like I said before, good people find work immediately and that's exactly what I did.
My heart is firmly in the right place, I don't have to change my perspective or outlook. As I said, if anyone needs help finding alternative work, they know where to find me.

Lads, take the slagging somewhere else please............
Some good friends of mine lost their jobs out of this, as well as having forked out for the type rating.
Hope they get jobs soon. All of them.

Hope something turns up soon.

3000psi..... I'm with you on that.
Viking 9......Get a life, we all know your feelings about Cougar you don't have to take them to your grave, put it behind you.
I agree about Cougars colour scheme one of the more imaginative ones around, pity it could not put it on both the freighters though.
Could this be a farewell to 727s in Europe
Good luck to all the Cougar staff

redcap still clearly wrong about everything I see, never been sacked and am never likely to be. Also, I've done with the cargo airline - contract over, and have moved on so as HOGG says, take your slagging elsewhere.
Max Pointers I have a life and a good one at that, but thanks for your concern. Maybe you and redcap should get together
Now if you don't mind, this thread is about Cougar and nothing else. As 3000psi said, lets help get the ex Cougar people back into work. As a contract worker myself, I may be able to find work for some of you. Feel free to contact me, those who ACTUALLY know who I am will know where and how to find me.
Ahem, I removed that smilie. CR2
Oops

What is wrong with everyone this is supposed to be a rumour network not a slanging match! Although I do have to say Viking 9 was not sacked he was made redundant whislt I his immediate manager was on holiday that seemed to be the way the company worked. Also please do not feel sorry for the NE or is it Northern Alliance as it was a very good company until Fossil and Co arrived and ruined it.

appologies for the bashing at a time when we should be assisting and not slagging.
Just cant believe the man gets away with it but hey think others have the right idea about him so no more said.

major1 to answer your question, the KC-135's are roughly split into CFM and JT3 power, so the engines would be for something else. Like most others here, I will only wish good fortune to those who will be now seeking re-employment. I'll leave it at that.
