that's why I heard that this company will not last longer than next 4 years, the CEO Peter Hill everybody can read about him in this forum
, and the DMO will never learn from mistake that he made, the Flight Operation never had Fleet Captain for the past 1 year also the SMLO
.
the best thing I heard in Gulf country the pilot may not have an Association nor be a member of Association.
big ambition yes they have, but how to manage the flight operation that another thing's and none of the Omani's have experience of this, if the A330 come's we will see the disaster, and they will not learn from other more experience company around the world, I heard this is the only company that by rule legally to let their pilot fly 3 consecutive night landing without night rest at base
