Grow up man,you are such a joke!

By the way you keep us entertained!...joker!!!

yeah, thats right,its only the amiri fleet has an A-340,and not main line QR.....and this "crack pot" (abuspilot) flying the emir of qatar?

Folks, I've been watching this thread go steadily downhill for a few days now. In an effort to salvage it I have barred all further access to it by abuspilot; let's see if we can recover some semblance of order here - if not I suggest we close it down. It'll only be a day or so before another Q-Airways thread starts up again.

And if abuspilot starts the same nonsense on other threads I will have no hesitation in making him the first person to be permanently banned from this forum. Your move son.

Gawd bless yer Guvnor - I don't think I'll bother with the Ritz for a while.........

Thank you 4HP I find your intervention well called for. This "gentleman" does not belong in a professional forum, or any forum for that matter he belongs in the looney bin.:yuk:

TO ALL CONCERNED

DONT LET THIS GUY DISTRACT YOU FROM THE BIGGER ISSUES THAT FACE US ALL IN QR. LET US NOT FORGET THAT WE HAVE JUST LOST A CAPT. BECAUSE OF THE RANTINGS OF A JEALOUS GIRLFRIEND. A PRIVATE MATTER. THAT OUR NEW ADVISER SAYS THAT FATIGUE HAS NOT BEEN PROVEN. THAT CRM IS A WASTE OF TIME. THESE ARE THE ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE TALKED ABOUT AND FOUGHT ABOUT IN A HEALTHY OPEN FORUM.

hands up!!!
 

Goldstar u da man,lets get down to the nitty gritty there are a lot of good,professional crew in QR that need to be looked after,xxx M.

Goldstar,

spot on my friend.....

One little word of advise.....As written in the Peninsula this week QR and AAB have announced a total war against all "lies" written on the net...

He announced that every bit of confidential info or anything untrue being written on the net would be regarded as an attack against the state of Qatar.........that way it becomes a matter of national security and the law will be used in all its meanings...

So people, stick to the facts plse, maybe the above is just a treat, who knows but do not take the risk....

The truth and nothing but the truth, so help us god....:ok:

PS: its true we lost a captain over those 'romantic ' facts but I can assure you that it goes much deeper then just that....As a matter of fact he made a deal with managment which he repeatedly has been breaking so they had to react.....I am afraid that this one is the fault of the pilot! We have to play the game by certain rules and this guy attempted to brake them.....
" He who plays with fire........'

It looks like people do not know how to understand other culters, to the people who are not happy I hope you can find a better life good luck, to thoes who are happy stay and enjoy yourself. If I was given a chance to fly for an airline like QA I would take it on the spot. Always remember that a country which is trying to build itself will make a lot of mistakes but I am sure they will learn in the long run. As for the airline it will be better not to get involved in the running, stay out of the politics.

Good luck to all and remember stay calm in the cockpit:ok:

Qatari 515,

Please check your Priv. Messages.

Kind Regards,

I would just like to assist the Qatar Airways Pprune policeman by stating that abuspilot is not Australian!

Let me demonstrate. Abus pilot, a few questions any Aussie pilot could easily answer.

1 If you were to flash your shiny bars on Bondi Beach what nationality of welfare receiving female would you likely pickup?

2 "Such is life"- whose quote?

3 The Don. Roman Catholic or Protestant?

4 Where would you find a famous beach with a Lone Pine?

5 If God came to Hawthorn where would Peter Hudson have gone?

No joy? You sound Hispanic.

Qatari515,

AAB is nuts!!!! how much can he stop this and for how long? the whole world knows who he is and what he is upto and the bad reputation he has brought into the company together with some of his close henchmen (SK).

He may dictate terms within QR, people may tolerate them for some time, but thats not gonna be forever.humanity will rise against AAB.

AAB may want to publish statements to news papers,to use law to its fullest meaning,but the facts are facts if AAB likes it or not! lastly,it should not be forgotton,that the bad reputation QR has is a fact and that "there wont be any smoke without a fire"!

Is AAB gonna use law and order against the truth ????...may be in the good old days,but not any more!!!!!

people wouldnt keep quiet,people will stand against him!! because he doesnt deserve to be a CEO/maneger !!

what goes around comes around!
 

Imagine the amount of excellent crew that would have stayed in QR if Casper wasn't the CEO,slowly but surely people are backing away from him.

No! complains....
 

Abuspilot Gnadenburg any body who cares about nationality or personality!!!!

My humble message is that: we shouldn't be bashing betwen each other. we should be discussing technical issues or better ways to improve all the issues that affect us as individuals or as crews.

Let's all work toguether for a better future!!

Life its hard as it is...
let's fly and have fun! its all up to us guys "cockpit and cabin crew" to make this a better place to work and live::D

I agree with Jet4hire, it is in everyones intrest to try and help eachother to suceed. In my company not all is well but at least we try and look out for eachother. Can you imagin if a new pilot joins QR who never flown an Airbus comes into a cockpit with a Capt who is dreading to fly and complaining about QR, that will be bad and it will make the F/O not perform to well, BAD CRM.
Good luck to all and I hope that one day all will be well, but remember that there is not one perfect company. Bring back the joy in the cockpit, do what my grandfather always say:

1) Don't worry

2) Don't hurry

3) Don't sorry

Life will be much better, good luck to all in QR.

:ok:

GO HOME WHITE BOY
 

Wilco

Pretty good stuff your smoking!

From the Golden Triangle I suppose.

Qatar is in the Persian Gulf too. You seem to think it is in the South China Sea.

Yep, a whole heap of good, experienced people gone because of the AAB regime.

As for BG and SK and co...pathetic people who are scared to stand up and support the crew!

AAB cannot stop free speech.

Qatar is a lovely place with great people. QR reminds me of the quote from "ON the Water Front"...." I coulda been a contender..."

Could've, should've but not a hope with the midget at the helm!

What a strange thread this is.

not as strange as the poisoned dwarf they call a ceo at QR!!

Homesick Rae

That may be so but I can't help wondering if some of the posts on this thread make the case for the establishment of a "Kiddies Corner". or maybe "Testosterone Challenged" Forum.

Pontious

Do you or have you worked for QR?

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you in some ways but I have been it, seen it and I only post FACTS about incidents I KNOW about. No hearsay.

...and, I , like many others hate to see the good folks suffer!

On Wednesday at about half past midnight our friend AAB was in the bar/nightclub called Oxygen at the Al Bustan Rotana Hotel in Dubai with a drink of something in his hand ... by all accounts a little merry ... but that is third hand info unlike the sighting! Dressed smart casual ... shirt outside his trousers trying to emulate the look of a much younger man.

What does this prove? That he's normal? Impossible. That he likes an alcoholic drink? Maybe. Nothing at all? Probably!

do as i say don't do as i do

goldstone ,

aab never had a drink in his life buddy...
his level is higher then to be seen in a bar..

I'm not trying to defend him but the truth must be said...

In europe they'd probably ask for ID, to prove he's 18! They normally do this for guys who can only just see over the bar!

Actually, in his previous existence he used to have a taste for the old "walking johnny"...according to someone who used to travel with him!

Guy's

Who gives a sh#t what the man likes to eat or drink or whatever. What we should all be worried about is the fact that while he is quite happy to be continually terrorising all of his staff (systemwide), the company is actually in a financial mess.

The latest evidence of this is when we see repeated copycat schedules of EK (Shanghai, Moscow, soon New York, Australia.....). The hub and spoke theory cannot continue for ever with a fleet of shabby second hand A300's, being bought or leased from second rate Chinese and Asian carriers who could see the sense in getting rid of them!

We should not be fooled by the company's crazy rate of expansion - this is a rate at which the industry cannot stand at present - wait and see.

I heard a rumour that Manchester and Rome will be shelved very soon. (under instruction from shareholders).

I am really sorry to hear this.

A300 ....

continually terrorising all of his staff (systemwide) :

This terrorisim is working ..... we have a better disiplined staff .
We have diciplined cabin and flight deck crew...

If it wasn't for AAB's actions , we would have a country full of cabin crew conflicting with the traditions of Qatar ....
you know what I mean?

So i totaly agree with the style of AAB with his staff .
Besides , what's wrong with a boss that is strict ?
At the end of the day the boss wants the company to succeed .

;) Recently spotted on a coaster.

" I DON'T TRUST CAMELS.........

....OR ANYONE ELSE WHO CAN GO FOR WEEKS WITHOUT A DRINK"

:ok:

Junkyard:

No, you are wrong!

AAB does not discipline, he terrifies crew!

The discipline you are talking about comes from the hard working CSD/ CS who conducts the briefing, instills confidence in the crew and let's them know how good and valued they are. They then feel motivated and go on the aircraft to perform marvellously, diligently and thoroughly despite the constant threat of losing their job!

There are the odd CSD/ CS that follow the AAB method, but I am sure that many would agree, the discipline starts in the briefing room!

I care about what happens to QR because of the good people there and their families...remember...YOU could be next...

Just look at the recent sackings....and the reasons....

Good that enjoy it, many do...make the most of it because it will not last!

O.k. Homesick , I see your point .... but beleive me if AAB does not use his dictatorship method , hell would break lose..

QR can not afford any mistakes , remember 1 accident and the airline is gone.

Not every employee in the airline is mature , you get different kinds of people....
Imagine being in a school with an easy soft principle , what would all the kids do?

I think AAB has orders to act like this , in the old place where he used to work his attitude was completly different.

I beleive that the fear element should be there.

thanks

Junkyard

Sheikh Mohamed, Maurice Flanagan and even James Hogan don't use this style of dictatorial management, and there is no real sign of anarchy at either EK or GF.

So, how do these guys get away with it, but in Doha, AAB has to have his six thousand fingers in six thousand pies! (pardon the parody).

I admire the guy's tenacity and his sheer love and passion for the company and his desire for success.

But, this style just cannot go on! He MUST let go of some of the reins at some stage and entrust and empower his management team to fully do the jobs for which they were hired!

Come on........we all agree with this. Why have a dog and bark yourself, as the saying goes?

A 300 man,I see similar style of words used in many of the posts written by people contributing to this forum.are you having multiple identities?

Just curious,thats all.

With PPRUNE Police around , expect any Identity mate...

Someone attended a QR meeting once and heard AAB saying that they will trace people that post negitives about QR ,
what are the odds that QR police can actually trace you?

Anyone?

What surprises me is that the amount of people leaving monthly is near to be equal to those joining every month. How can they still expand? If only there would be unions in Qatar.... . Has anyone thought about a strike? what would be the consequences? Would everyone be terminated? That would be the end of QR. Hope there will never be an end to QR but the top of the company will have to change for that in order to be succesful.

Bang,

Referring to your comments above, I must add that I have exactly the same feeling about YOUR posts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you have anything to say to me of a sensitive nature, either PM me or call me. You have my numbers and you know who I am!

Don't change the subject of this thread - if you want to start another one about multiple identities, then it will be the longest thread in history!! As Junkyard said, people at QR are terrified to post negative comments because they are being tracked down by someone......

In any case, all of the threads on this ME Forum are in the English language.

Back to the real issue - I guess that strikes are forbidden under Qatari labour laws and the Contract of Employment issued by QR. And in any case, that wouldn't really solve anything.

All the Company needs is for its management team to be empowered.

Hello, every body
 

Does any one Knows what happen to Derrick, DMartin and Roberts? woderful guys! but ........

I Just haven't seen these guys in a long time!!!!!!!!
just curious:D any news?
Have a nice day you all!!!!!

Been reading through this forum, interesting, but somehow sad to read. Seems there is a couple of inmature people around/in the company (and they are flight crew !!).

Cheers,

Anyone in any company as far as i know is free to leave if they are unhappy with the company/conditions and if they do !

A good advice "never slam the door after you when you leave", the aviation world is very small. It seems that some people ignore that.

"The people you meet on the way up, you will meet again on the way down"

Good luck to your company in the future.

I am not working in Qatar Airways just for your info, but as Airbus driver in another part of the world.

Cheers

You are right man!!!
 

I am curious?
to know who you work for?

I do like your way of putting things!

Cheers

It makes me laugh some of the people asking do you know this person and that person right in the middle of serious discussion!!! They must be on something!!!

If A300 Man is serious about what he's saying about QR's figs and profitability over on the "Qatar Critical" thread then we may well be "out of a prune job" as AAB will surely on his bike...literally and then we'll have nothing to moan about.

As far as Junkyard Dog goes...there's been some good threads from A300man, Goldstone, Homesic k etc but surely this joker is stirring everybody up, just trying to make stupid comments suposedly in support of AAB's style etc. I think we should just ignore further threads from him/her and treat them with the contempt they deserve.

Some of the purposes of my threads is to get the Board to listen, get them to take action and turn QR into the company they should be rather than the one they are...if what A300Man is right then maybe, just maybe they have listened. The bouncer and his "prune police" can't touch you as far as I know. Frankly I'm past caring now.
