Bottom line Midex did not pay us correctly and changed our contracts many times.
Accept the new contract long before completion date, comply or good bye type threats.
We can point fingers at each other all day long and the end result will be the same.
No matter how you leave Midex you wont get paid what you are owed.

It's a thin line between love and hate. It's an even thinner line between kissing ass and making the mortgage payments back home. Don't mistake one's tolerance for acceptance.

Why else would anyone have stuck around for as long as they did?

Do not join Midex Airlines

I see that they are recruiting again to replace departed crews. I strongly recommend that nobody joins this awful airline. The aircraft are very badly maintained with defects never fixed but signed off all the same. They expect you to bend the rules all the time. They do not pay you what they owe you when you leave. They treat their staff like s--t. The management are incompetent dreadful people. When you do leave they do their utmost to screw you and stop you getting a job elsewhere. I worked for them and it was the worst time of my life.

Have we heard that before!......I think the market know that by now ;-) Anyone with some fresh gossip, for a change? Any lower management scandals, stupid decisions, cock ups? Any new contract changes initiated by "the great leader" ? For those of you still in there, why don't you come and join us in the free world? You'll like it here ;-)

You are correct Sir H
We have beat that horse about Midex not paying into the ground.
But do hope that anyone considering working there would read these posts and have second thoughts as Midex does not pay even if you follow the rules and contracts they constantly change!
As far as escaped from midex posted you will need a no objection letter to work in the UAE or any GCAA country again , or be out for a period exceeding 1 year.
No matter how you left,,the correct way,,resigned furloughed, contract completion, no debts owed etc.
Midex is blocking crews from this now past and present.
Best to stay away from this bottom feeding outfit.
As someone pointed out Midex is KFC airlines.
Khairallah Flying Circus.

Devil Pigs revolving in their own sty

Get a life Bone.
Stop posting nonsense.
You have 4 post, all 4 slam Midex.
All 4 Are B/S.

Ohh well, Mr Earl, so much for sucking from MidEx managment and now you seem to have joined the long line of american losers heading probably to Bagram and joind the club of your comrads who piss on Afghan corpses or help in the burning of the Koran; I scrolled back in time, and found your nosed browned with old comments; "you throw s..t up it can only land on your face" pal. Your former friends of the past appeared to have predicted your fate. With Saudia/Phuket and now MidEx on your background would probably qualify U for jobs picking up garbage in some corners of your home land.

Yes DIGNIFIED I did post that a while back and no I have never had my nose brown with the management,,just the opposite.
Back then Midex was just barely tolerable and those posting did not even work there.
It got much worse as time passed and now makes Bones post correct.
As far as your comments about pissing on corpses, will leave that to the pros to do.
Burning Korans,,where do you get this from,,some 3rd world TV station.
Would help if they put toilet paper inside the toilets there, plenty of religious material available inside, leaves one with choice,,hand or paper,,now which would you choose?
Have a nice day!

Post Capro espiatorio

Thank you for the opportunity to comment, let me put it this way:
Most Islamic countries I have visited possess a rather pleasant stream of water that you can regulate with cold or hot water and lands right on your ass hole; not only saves the paper you allude to with some septic tank sarcasm, but also makes sure you walk away with a clean and hygienic spirit, the one you lacked of with criticizing your own former colleagues.
So I throw you the ball back in your hands, would you rather be pro-hopeless management? or would you try amalgamating with your own peers?
Cornuto!

dignified?????

Can't say I understand your posts about Midex. Do you try to make a point or are you just being rude ;-) And for the record, do you ever had any experience or connection with Midex?

No dignity whatsoever

Dignified, you are a complete idiot and nothing you have said can be understood let alone dignified.

Bones will now be able to post his 5th post which will go something like this:

Pink slips for the bus guys have been delivered. They are being parked June 30th.

And he will be correct. It is confirmed.

Earl, you have been a fair and decent man who tried hard to be a team player and you got screwed in the end just as many before you. You were never, nor did you ever play the role of skapegoat as dignified tried so stupidly to apply to you. ( personally I think he sounded as if he fell in a bucket of cheap beer).

To the pilots who stuck around with hopes the rumors remained just that, best of luck to you and may you all continue to fly with new jobs in the near future. If you need a place to hang out while applying for spots around the UAE, our case es su casa. We have plenty of room.

Midex the failed venture

Well it looks like the fake doctor's airline did not quite work out as planned. The Airbus 300s are going next month and there are just two tired B747 classics operating. All the good crews have left and nobody else wants to join them. Surprise surprise. This is exactly what happens with awful incompetent management. He must have lost a fortune. There is a god !

From the Midex website:

"

MIDEX AIRLINES, UAE National Cargo Carrier, made its third appearance at the Dubai Airshow with one of its three B747 aircraft.

Company President, Dr. Issam KHAIRALLAH, declared during the Dubai Airshow that MIDEX will purchase five B747 before end of 2012 making Midex the largest cargo operator privately owned in the world."


Oh, HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!! Someone better tell Connie Kalitta that, or Del Smith, or probably several others!


Sorry, I haven't posted in a long while but that really made me laugh.

Thanks Sassy Pilots wife.
I wonder if the other privately 747 classic company owners listen to this Doc.
Think they have the same opinion of his lies and deceits as the ex Midex crews.
Biggest 747 classic privately owned around? I doubt that as I can name at least 4 or 5 now much bigger than Midex.
Maybe one day Connie will put this little runt in his place ha ha.
I am sure we all know how that may happen.

Midex

I guess all the people that left mudex were wrong? All those very experienced crew. All you people with your heads in the sand will find it hard getting work in any other airline. Good luck

So the rumors are true and the Airbus is no more at MidEx. To bad a lot of my friends were there. The question is now: Will they be paid?

3 pointer, suggest you read the previous 36 pages, you should be able to make a good guess about payment from them.

Midex

They are talking about getting more 747s but they can only keep one 747 junker flying.
Because of all the bad press they've had & ex-crew telling the aviation world how bad they are, they have no chance of getting any experienced crew.
The owner thinks we believe in Santa Claus.
Don't forget boys, 12 hours from the bottle to the throttle

Midex claims they operate in the UAE free zone.
Your contracts are never registered with the UAE government as required under the UAE labor law.
Yet you hold a UAE labor card like every other expat there and in same as every company has.
Your resident visa will be out of Ras Alkama, your base will be Sharjah, the company office is in Dubai.
Now you tell me there isn't some funny business going on here.
Even when you register a vehicle there they say its not correct.
Midex operating in the free zone is total B/S.
To them that means they can change your contract long before the expiration date, massive cutting of terms and conditions,,not pay you what is owed according to the UAE labor law and your contract states.
Even under the final contract you signed with them.
This is a scum bag bottom feeding outfit,
No need to have knowledge of the MEl there or even read it as it does not apply.
Midex owes all of us a lot of money no matter how you left there, they don't pay bottom line.
Edited for spelling.

Forgot to add and yes it is getting attention worldwide.
Managers there are probably going to have a difficult time finding jobs elsewhere once this one folds up.
