Do I know you? and can I have a job?...please :E

Many thanks for the help and advice.
Ian

You should have no problems proving that you worked at Emerald even though they cannot provide a reference. Simply contact your tax office as they will have a record that you were working at Emerald during the period concerned. They will send you a letter confirming the dates they held records that you were employed by the company and this should suffice to obtain an airside pass as long as everything else is in order.

SR is now head of flight training at Eastern.:suspect:

I well remember you in Ops , you were most helpful to the aircrew and you deserve every encouragement in achieving your goal,should you require a reference I would be happy to oblige.

Hi Ian,
I'm not sure I'm much use at the moment, since I'm out of the flying game currently. Law is a little bit more profitable, you don't need a medical either!

Good luck though.

Many thanks and best wishes all.

Ian

Midnight Retired, I have sent private mail to you.

so, any movement yet on the 748's, and the new venture?

The new venture is nearly a reality and should be up and running very shortly. If any of Emeralds ex pilots are stlii without a flying job or would like to fly the 748 again please give me a call.

Fred Holloway

MMMMM let me think about this

0.0001 seconds later......NO

I for one would like to wish the best of luck to the new venture. Obviously the Emerald ethos of only spending money when they had to, was at times frustrating, but on the whole I did enjoy the eight and a half years I spent there. I flew with some great guys and loved flying the budgie.

Like many others, I lost out on what should have been a reasonable redundancy payout, and a few months of being very stressed until I found another flying job. I am not bitter as it was business and not personal, I would like to wish all the 748 guys who get involved the very best of luck.

Germstone, sorry it took you so long to realise that the the invite to apply for a flight crew position was restricted to pilots.

wheres the base?
 

Hi
Been reading this post now for a while and curious as to where the new outfit is going to be based,and if anybody knows if there are any Ops jobs going???

Yes, I'd be interested to know whether the airline will be based in the North West again, or whether the rumours about a Southend base are correct?

Maybe 'corgiboy' could send me a message with some details of Ts&Cs and the flightcrew experience required for DECs?

Kind regards

SITW :)

I am told they will be based southend for certain.

Looks like they will be up and running within the next month or two once the final herdles have been jumped.

Watch this space as they say.

anyone know where he is
 

by chance ran into an old friend who works at manchester and we got onto the subject of MOB .He advised that he had info from a reliable source he was last seen in nigeria ?

Darts were howling at BLK on Monday afternoon !
G-BGMO engine runs

I would love to see the old budgies flying revenue stuff again....
I miss the old chaotic ops days... as stressful as it was at times it was great craic!

New Set Up
 

Could I be so kind as to ask does anyone have any contact details for the new set up and if so could they pls PM me with them

Thanks

Old Ops Guys never die.......

....they just smell like 6 tons of Manx kippers.

--- and yesterday I was talking with two elderly ex-Emerald captains (one is hoping to spend his last working year with the new venture) - not kippers, but a strong whiff of Old Spice -----

Any news yet on when the new venture will start ops?

Budgie Airborne
 

I understand a 748 was airborne on an airtest out of BLK this morning, are things finally moving again? Anyone else heard anything

Saw it this afternoon on approach 28. This is more than C&M so something must await the budgie..........

Rgds
The Moss:ok:

anybody
 

word has it atlantic need pilots for ATP's at CVT, D E capts & F/O's.

be quick tho, course is in april

Steve Cook is the Chief pilot for electra & ATP at atlantic.

just in case anybody is still looking !!

good luck.

notice nice new (!) white 748 ready for delivery to new owners waring reg S2AXX. anyone no where its going - strangely it has the old green emerald square logo on the nose and fin

S2 is Bangladesh.

Perhaps it is G-BGMO, which is shown on the CAA register as having a possible change of ownership pending.

A shame if it's being exported as I had hoped this might be AJ's first aircraft for the new operation.

Blackpool spotters site confirms it is ex G-BGMO

BGMO to bangladesh
AYIM to SEN for AJ....maybe tomorrow:ok:

Yes, I've just been told that today G-AYIM will route BLK-SEN-CVT-SEN, operator Janes Aviation.

Express flight - Correct - Aircraft arrived SEN this morning according CFMU.

Be nice to hear the whine of darts again !

not to mention the whine of a few FOs about pay and conditions.:\

how many of his old fleet (that mob ruined) is aj getting and to do what from where?

Six in total 2 are ready and 1 is almost ready the other 3 will come on line later this year.
There are already 6 aircrew recuited all with OPC's, LPC's completed.
AYIM flew SEN-CVT-SEN last week for a proving flight for theCAA
