It doesn't seem such a big deal but our PCE, especially, has led all of us to believe that there was to be an aircraft order at the Dubai airshow. More bulls*** from the smiling liar. Believe me guys the board & our PCE have no idea what they are doing. I guess they still think they can hold out until privatization!!! Good luck.
Also it's amazing how many bulls***ers are around claiming to have "inside" information regarding this & that. It is obvious now by this thread that there are alot of peolple who know f*** all.

Way to put it.
Well I guess PCE and Chairman needed to be together in Dubai to make the announcement that they were going to get a new fleet, but what is worse are the comments made by the chairman their regarding selling off some of the company etc. these guys have not even got out of the sandbox yet and are falling down.

BN you should be ashamed. You held the hopes of the company in your hands and you dropped them. Do you really think the BIG news is that you go from APCE to PCE has a single person excited? The only thing big now is your paycheck. Aren't we all glad about that. Only at GF would something like this be allowed. You had us all fooled including pprune's resident joker FADAC. Yes we all supporting black eyes today.

Blame yourselves

I said in an earlier thread the big news to be made was the appointment of BN's as PCE, even before it was announced in DXB. This was the promised breaking news ! ! Are you Nuts guys ? Did you realy believe GA was or can buy new AC ? Not in a 100 years ! !

this is the same guy who stood the company up on what was supposed to be an auspices occassion for gulfair when bahrain officially became the sole owner...and this is to attend a private matter back home....after having invited everyone to a small celebration at hq to mark the occassion.
so when will that celebration take place now? when he is damn right and ready? gf awaits you, oh fearless leader.

I feel sorry for the pilots who withdrew their resignations for this. It was hoped there was a better future but now it's just as bad as ever. With Naf as PCE things can only get worse. Do they really believe someone wants to buy 50% of a company losing $600,000 a day? If new buyers come in look out cause they will be after your salaries from day one.

FYI it will only get worse from here for people at GF. The Bahraini Government has declared Bahrain Air as the second national carrier of Bahrain. So much for supporting GF. Now this new company will have access to and can demand frequencies and traffic rights that are currently used by GF.

jack,
don't feel too sorry for the ones who'd contemplated leaving before. we know whoever made those big orders and they will need drivers soon enough. don't forget, it's a pilots market worldwide. only gf will be the ones who will be sorry, like their newly leased 738. the gf paint is already peeling off after only a couple of weeks. says a lot about the company really. it's all just patchwork and a coverup paint job.

boilermaker, where do you get your info regarding Bahrain Air being the 2nd flag carrier for Bahrain?
Doesn't sound right?

The info comes from a senior manager at GF. This happened less than a week ago. It was a shock to everyone there.

Maybe FADAC, with his "vivid" imagination, is now contemplating on a new username...a new identity...
Give him time, folks!

boilermaker, you should be clever enough to know that first of all GF have senior managers for even the tiniest position. So shame on you for believing him/her!
Also I don't think Bahrain Air can be the 2nd national carrier since 49% of the shares belong to a Saudis. Why don't you ask your 'senior' manager buddy?

Dear Mephistopheles, time will prove that I was right once again (and you will see). I feel no shame trusting my source as he/she is very knowledgeable and respectable in the company. FYI, Bahrain Air is also owned by Shk Ali. Given that info, and the other people in BAH backing him up, are u sure it won't be declared as the second national carrier? I said what I said and I am sticking to it. I rarely post anything unless I have checked it through and am sure that it is right.

boilermaker, again my info varies from yours. I have been led to believe that apart from the Saudi investors the other shareholders are Bahraini sheiks but not Sheik Ali. We shall see.

Wow, seems a little emotional in here. Just laughing at the colourful bit of screaming from some of you. Guys, look. Just go to work, earn your keep, and let everything take it's course. Something is in the works and it will reveal itself in time. As we've all said from time to time, sit back, relax, and enjoy.
