Thanks KunnDize Wanty's Post on Arrogant Pilots would not be allowed by 4 Holerpoler.

I feel very secure knowing that the Machine Minders are keeping it all together!

Looks like there is lots of jobs coming out. Got a call from Singapore agency.

Apparently SQ looking for approx 70 blokes! Opportunities arise at every turn at moment.

Keep Discovering!!

Anyone know how much SQ and HAECO are paying?

HAECO is a 2 year contract HK$55k + HK$9.5k rent allowance a monthy + 12% and of contract gratuity. Income tax 16%. I believe they will also contribute towards schooling. So all in at current exchange rate 64k UK Pounds a year (if you live within the rent allowance).

Recruiting B1 & B2 Engineers with relevant approval. Bit of a heavy workload though, same $hit different company.

Not 100% sure of pay for SIA, although Milcom are recruiting for them as are a few UK contract agencys. Last i heard was an 'all in" of US$11k a month, again roughly comes 78k UK pounds a year, with your accom to come out.

Greener pastures also at Gamco

KunnDiz why are you twitchy about Pay comparisons between PILE & ENG?

Take OT for example

PILE 420 aed/hr ENG 80aed/hr

Rumour has it 20 going to MAS.

20 going to MAS what about the others where are they going?

120 Cabin crew quit also!

Who will be left to Maintain the Fleet in the new hanger?

High Speed Aluminummmm Minders I would get off the seat and CYA take a walk around before take off!

... I am now getting a tad disoriented, who are all these 4 holer people on the forum ?

Sounds like the industry is short of Experienced Licenced Engineers!

Any one Know how to use a slide rule?

Anyone Know how to use a sine bar?

How Many Licenced Engineers have served an Apprenticeship and have Indentures?

Just got back for a long break. Last night went out for a couple of beers with one of my mates who is a 744 Capt. in MAS. He confirms the 25% pay rise. He told me he now gets USD9000/-.

Updates on the story so far......

Apparently there have been quite a few promotions in the Engineering department after the MAS incident! Looks like management are trying hard to get their act together!! Although they're still looking out for more Engineers!!

And as for PolerHoler4:

"Anyone Know how to use a sine bar?

Almost all the Engineers I know have served an apprenticeship and had indentures!!

What about the " Licenced Engineer" who swept the floors for DNATA?

Got me there 4HolersPolers!! I don't think he was actually sweeping floors! C'mon, there are always a few!!

coolcaper gracefully bows!!

Coolcaper would you let him loose to do a Hot gas path inspection reblade or engine changeout?

MASsenger,

That 744 skipper is counting the chicks before they hatch. Bottom line is the deal have yet to be signed. Once they get their RM in the bank, we can have free "nasi lemak" and "teh tarik" at the mamak stall.

:hmm:

4HolersPolers...Wouldn't let him loose to do anything..but thats where we rely on our safety nets and manage to keep everything in check! Few bad apples are bound to ruin the rep but the rest make it better!!

Coolcaper it would be great if some of the "Bad Apples" would quit but the rot has set in and they know if they went else where they would not last 5 mins!
