Infinity Aviation

I remember seeing a their very smart G3, at the MEBA show.

Recently I was told that they are getting a G4, and that they required crew.

Is this to be based at RAK, DXB, or in Saudi. ?

Also heard that they are taking over the G5 from Dana, their neighbour in RAK.

Just rumours, but thats why we are here on PpRuNe.

a few problems...........

I hear Infinity have a few problems mainly related to manuals and outstanding audit items from some time ago. Also an extremely high staff turnover seems to be causing concern. Anyone have any more details ?

only fair, IMHO

If that was the case, it's about time that some of these bullies are brought to book for their cowardly actions. Too many times are employees made the scapegoats for the total incompetence of people using the misnomer of 'manager' or 'director', many of who could not manage or direct their way out of a paper bag.

It will be interesting to follow this case's outcome.

If anyone has an update, please let us have the details.

IMHO !

how was the inspection boys ?

If there are any infinity people checking this out - how did the inspection by the authority go the other day ??

How can you have an aoc renewed when your only aircraft has had its c of a suspended due to outstanding maintenance items ? Just a general question...

Infinity / Dana / ACME

Who are the backers behind this one? Potty and gang? or a different bunch of goombahs?

Take a dose of aspirin before you attempt to read their website, it's cornier than a mexican !!!!!

What ever happended to Dana Jet's in Rak? They were / are a similar type of 'idea' right?

not the same.......but the similar

Two chaps, one from Iraq and one from Pakistan, currently without an AOC, but still out there trying to deny this state of affairs to all potential customers.
" It's a mistake, the GCAA got it wrong, we're really good folks, honest.....",
screwing their staff as fast as they can, including, I am told, trying to submit a photoshopped contract to the local labour court when they were not happy about the real one being used as evidence against them in the court. Not paying on time, or not at all, trying to bully and intimidate employees, banning staff from contacting other staff, threatening to break into staff accomodation to search for imaginary 'evidence' of conspriracy..... oh yes, these two are classics.
These two clowns make the other local aviation management look like angels !

Only fair IHMO

onhmss:
yes, you are right the "Office Managers" had to be getting money from somewhere because we were not generating enough money from flights, that's for sure. 15 people in the office and they couldn't run one airplane, never mind take on the Hawker. The G-5 was just a rumor... I never heard of it in my 9 months there as DFO.

deferent story

GCAA111, I'm that guy... your mechanic friend seems to know only that same as you... the rumors. You want the truth talk to Capt Kamali our POI of the GCAA in Dubai, or Mr Addasi the official investigator... I worked closely with them.

They were never going to get the AOC back, Adassi and Capt Kamali made that perfectly clear.

I have a 1st class JAA and FAA Medical. At this late point of my career, my ability to fly is moot. It was about my refusal to lie to the GCAA. I was in the boardroom in RAK, your friend with the misinformation wasn't even in the country. He's reporting from JED, 953 nm/2hrs 30min by G-III away... hmmm.

Your rumors make for a good story except they're about me and they are wrong. BTW I did sue them and I did win and collected some of my money. But the two scumbags have disappeared.
So as we both know your Mechanic friend didn't quit his job and join Infinity as they no longer exist. And if he did... boy would he have gotten a big surprise!!!
