Saw one of their A300'soperating in NBO Friday night.

Hi superspotter
just little bit of clarification. you said you saw onw of their b4s in Nairobi, NBO. Cause their schedule doesnt say anything about going into Nairobi. Should be grateful for further info and/or pics.
thnx

Yes, you're right. There was a Midex aircraft on the ground at NBO. It was doing its first charter flight for the company.

MIDEX in NBO
 

This was an aid flight from NBO into RGN, first they had operated..

any updates on the 747? Has it recieved the UAE reg.?

What is missing!
 

Any updates??

freighterone
 

Anyone know who the owner is?

According to a mate of mine who worked for Midex it doesn't look to rosy. Their infrastructure is a bit of a mess, to say the least. Last month they were looking for an A300 TRI/TRE for two days, yes two days to run the sim for recurrent training. So far nobody took the "bait".
I hope it will work out for them boys over there right now.

Any info about roster, QOL, etc..? How many buses out flying as of now? How many crews?

SBD:)

Nothing flying right now. No schedules no crews. Some odd charters to Maynmar for the quake relief efforts. Still a long way to go.

Midex - Unlikely
 

Gents - Am afraid commercially their whole business model doesnt stack up, Indian subcontinent feed to large plane to Europe, Worlds 5th largest integrator etc...sorry price of fuel and other Middle East carriers operating regional freighters to all the same places and guess what adequate lift nowadays direct ex sub continent. My guess is Midex is Empost 2 and they havent flown in a while now have they.? and even when they did it was ACT charters via IST. A300 B4 is not a plane you can make money with am afraid. Even the big boys EK / QR / EY with their A300-600 and A310s dont have enought work and their costs per kilo are beyond market tolerance..But would like to be proved wrong as the business is losing its entrepreneurs daily...

Heard from a friend, Midex 747 crews are getting checked out in MIA this week, then JAA course in a couple weeks in UAE. I believe, all ex-Focus?

Wasn't this the....
 

...Midex plane?

Boeing 747 -21AC(SCD) 24134 TC-AKZ Ankair delivery 31may08 AMS-SAW, all wh, no titl ex N134AP

No.

PH-MCN now A6-MDG

@WhaleDriver,
Whats the latest on the check out of 747 guys.
Also the JAA course that you are talking about, is it for the 747 or A300b4 crew?

Heard the 747 is going to fly for Lufthansa.
What routes?

Corsair or LH
 

Latest I have heard it was supossed to be a codeshare with Corsair. 6 times a week AIN-ORY (if they are ever going to launch)
Where did you hear this LH variant?

Sorry, no new info.

Thanks Whale Driver,
Shall appreciate an update whenever you have any info!!!!!!

My understanding is AIN-ORY will be a B4 operation where as the 747 will for the timebeing fly for LH.
