BOAG Air - New Start, Belgium
 
BOAG Air - apparently a new start out of Ostend and Brussels using B747-200F. Advertising for crews at the moment. Anyone know anything about them?

I know what BOAC stood for.......

This 'start up' plan was around a couple of years ago.

South African investors, using a Belgian Consultancy to 'sort things out'.

Thought it had died a death, though be interested to see what happens.

Oh yeah, who's aircraft??

recceguy 7th April 2005 15:49

Once again considering recruiting crew before they have the aircraft and the AOC - so with crew listed maybe their file will go forward before the administration ?
A couple of similar ventures appeared those past three years in Europe - usually in Italy (and always planning to fly BAE 146 or B747-200 ...)
Good luck anyway, maybe it could proceed on.

BOAG Air
 
They already have 2 B747-200F.
One from Kallitta and the other from unknown source.

Last I heared they were offering l/m euro 2000 + per Diem.:cool:

Frt Door.. the ex-Kalitta machine - that wouldnt be the one that has been operating for Air Bangladesh/AFX3 S2-ADT. That one is ex-CKS.

Is there anyone with any more news from BOAG?

I heard the first flight (to Johannesburg) was planned for this week. Maybe someone knows a bit more about this?

Around 70 ab initio's are being called for interviews in about 2-3 weeks....At least 12 will be offered a job.

So, big plans!!??

Anyway, good news for lots of wannabees like me.....!

Anyone know if this is Sandy Boag from S. Africa ?

ALLDAYDELI 26th April 2005 12:18

Word on the street (in Frankfurt) says that Orex might have something to do with this as well.

I'm brushing up on ATPL subjects at the moment, as I am waiting for another email with date and time for tests at Boag.

Did any "ab-initio" receive a notification of an interview?

MD12 29th April 2005 18:04

The answer is yes.


Does anybody know if they finally started-up operations?
