... channels of internally reporting incidents or non-compliance exist within Gulf Air..
I believe this is a requirement of both JAR and IOSA in terms of being able to report without fear of recrimination; so there should be; whether there is, or one that is effective, might be another question.

lol,lol,lolHeard kind of the same story. My GF rumour was that it was one of those flying cook's because the F/O complained the meal he ordered wasn't big enough potion size. It was the straw that broke the camel's back(pardon the pun), because he was flirtting with his Thai assistant and she turned him down.

That bit of advertisement is probably only about Bahrain's sole ownership of Gulf Air and nothing else. Why is everyone over analysing a simple ad?
Not just a Simple add. They new what they were doing when they placed the add.
MY COUNTRY MY AIRLINE...... its ours and don't forget it EXPAT.
But when things go wrong, its not our fault, it's the EXPAT fault.
They take over OUR country, take OUR jobs and ruin OUR airline.

Well, I have not seen the ad or heard any official comment but I am guessing it is a simple marketing effort that you would see anywhere else in the world. In fact, the slogan is so clean and simple that my guess is they ripped it off from another airline in Europe, NA or OZ!!!!
This is the exact type of advertsiing you would see from either a national airline anywhere in the West or from any of the upstart low costs trying to muscle into new markets and capitalize on a countries citizens pride.
So why should GF be any different in that regard. They are targeting the Bahraini narket with those ads and, since it is the countries airline, they have added some national pride which always helps with advertising.
But like I said - have not seen the ads so maybe I am wrong.

Hola Sal-e,
I think you are spot on. Bahain now has their own de facto national airline and they are proud of it, nothing wrong with that at all, in fact I congratulate them and wish them all the best. I also believe that as 'expats' we should be thankful that we have jobs in their country and their airline.
Ciao

Message To GF Training Captains
What our future captain did is totally not accepted!
(ref Gf Crm Arrogance thread)
But But But believe me guys there are SOME TREs that really need to hear your voice especially when you are doing your command upgrade, Or you are still a new FO with limited knowledge of the AC and company procedures!
I suggest we talk to them in a professional and mature way!
Most of them are PPRUNERS and they will read our messages
I suggest you tell them through this thread when you think they went wrong! They can either defend themselves or stop torturing people just because they are examiners!
I will give an example of the captain who was shouting in the simulator and insisting that ECAM ACTIONS has to be done with dual Engine Failure!!
My Message to him is
A) He did not know that the procedure of a dual engine flame out is to do the paper checklist.
B) There is no room to scream in the simulator it is just a small box. Freeze the Sim and debrief if necessary
C) We can not always do it YOUR way
Having saying that MOST of them are really good! So let us work on the bad ones
