<Whats the news on new beast (747) joining???>

F-GCBM is in a D-check at SPL. Will become A6-MDI.

And just arrived at SPL, F-GCBL, the third MidEx classic.

I've been seeing their aircraft come and go from my office window for a couple of weeks now - so yes, they are flying.

:= Not for much longer := :ok: :D

All three 747's are now at Schiphol. MDG in the paintshop, GCBM/MDI waiting for delivery and GCBL in a c-check.

I thought MDG already had the standard Midex livery!!!! are they planning to change the livery?

She was there only for some minor patching up. Left yesterday and back in service.

MIDEX taxi crunch
 

News just in.....

One of the MIDEX 742's is AOG in OAI. Crew hit a maintenance stand during taxi sometime last night.

Crew possibly out of duty day, 24hr / 7 day standby seems to be de rigeur. :mad:

not the best place to be AOG, the slot boys will not be happy with ramp space being taken up, interesting to know the story behind this the GCAA will hopefully publish the info

???????????????


Ingrish preeze!

Broken down in Bagram, Afghanistan.

Bagram Incidence A6 MDG, MIDEX 747 200F
 

The incidence is well known now, here are a few points to ponder.
1. Is there a pre flight inspection procedure in MIDEX or if its there is it being followed? Its obvious that there is LACK OF TRAINING AND SAFETY OVERSIGHT.
2. Crews had their required rest? It seems that they were in a hurry to keep the times with in limits, still if you calculate the time crews initiated the flight and according to the time that they started taxi in a hurry with the stairs still connected, it looks that they were in panic to leave, any how they could have completed the flight beyound 16 hours in any case.
3. Do they have some kind of recovery plans as needed by the regulatory authorities?
4. I remember an incidence once an Airbus of MIDEX stayed on ground as they went to Bagram without the fuel planning and were stranded as there was no arrangements of fuel for them.
5. Are they flying under some kind of safety oversight?

In the end the culture of blamming the crews will take its course once again and some one or may be a few will be fired again to satisfy the authorities and to hush up the case...:mad:

What are the hiring minimums for FOs on B4/742? Is it true that they are hiring guys without type rating? Any idea about a bond and the T & Cs? Thanks in advance.

Anybody hearing? Answers please!

The End-look somewhere else
 

The end is near.

Are you actually excited that the airline could possibly be shutting down resulting in pilots losing their jobs ? Perhaps you lost yours there ? Add HEAD to your nickname there buddy. It suits you. :ugh:
