I heard the fellow was being lined up for a humiliating sacking.

Touche! He got in there first and saved face in true Qatari fashion.

The only way things will change is with pilot turnover and poor professional publicity for Qatar Airways. I'm sure the kingdom is proud of their airline but maybe the realisation that it is tainted unneccessarily could lead to options for change.

The staff are treated so poorly that any future incident already has partial explaination. And what a humiliation for Qatar that would be!

Mr Al Baker. Be careful as history has preceded you. Your masochistic treatment of your staff and indication of closet perversions.

Gnadenberg...a round of applause sir!:ok:

Yipes
 

:sad: :sad: :sad: FI has just had an ad out for Hawker VIP with Qatar Airways, to which I applied.

:{ Having read the whole of this forum ,me now thinks that there are some serious a**holes in management,---just from the threads read.

Does anyone out there know what the affiliation with the two is?

I've only been to Doha a couple of times,but apart from that don't have much clue what it's like---:confused: :confused: :confused: is it vastly different from Dubai and Abu????

Are the working conditions in the Company that bad ?:{

My apology to you for reading perhaps more into your post than you may have intended.

I think, in all honesty to a fellow pilot, and as someone who's lived in the Gulf, discrimination is the one thing the Khaleejis mastered eons ago. WE won't change that so I honestly don't see the point in stating the obvious. As right as you may be....
the truth is MANY nationalities have skipped town out there, this one just may happen to be Belgique.
I really don't think that will have much impact on QR and their hiring practices. For all I know.

:ok:

Thanks for the clarification on the the local habits!
Yea, it's dificult to figure out, sometimes, where all these post's are really coming from?
It was a pleasure to have conversed..once again my apologies for any misinterpretation!

:ok:

Could you please send me a PM and give me your e-mail adres. Got a privat question for you.

Friendly regards,

Captain sacked!
 

Captain sacked

I hear AAB has recently sacked one of the companies most experience captains!

I do not know the full story, except it may have been that he failed a sim check?

Whatever the reason, this poor guy has been left, unable to leave the country due to the fact he has a loan...

Sure, it is up to the individual as to their choices regarding finances, but isn't it about time that little pinhead of a CEO showed just an ounce of compassion and understanding to his staff.

The gentleman in question has commited no crime, but I am sure he is being made to feel that he has!

AAB :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Sad really.

this thread has finally come to a stop?

too bad... it has been fun reading.

Hey Mali
 

:( Not heard a dickie-but then again not surprised after reading this site?:p :p :p
Unfortuneatly still in :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: uk!

VTSP !

Just heard that the Crown Prince has been sacked. Apparently he asked Daddy for more descision making authority and Daddy remembered that this is how he started on the track to getting rid of his dad. :confused:

The board has just recently questioned Al Baker on the turn over of cabin crew and why several were dismissed as a direct order from him.
As of May 03 he accounted for 68 dismissals.
He has been asked to account for each and every one with reasoning behind them.
I think our leader now might be getting the message as pressure is coming from the top.
I hope this is true for the sake of the cabin crew.

Laury, I do not doubt your words and sincerely hope that this may be a sign of things to come.

However, for a few years now there have been so many stories about him and he is still in existence!

Keep us posted though!

I hear another GM has departed (A.S)

If there's any justice in the world AAB will be kicked out and replaced with someone competent to run an airline the size of QR.

Laury

As far as I know, there were no questions asked by the board relative to accounting for the 68 dismissals. I don't know where this came from. How solid is your source? I don't even think they are interested in staff turnover - only bottom line.

Well said Goldstar!

Call me cynical or paranoid , but seems to me that Abuspilot is deflecting us from the real issues at QR, how nice for AAB.

Could he be a plant or a pawn???

Makes sense, spend time talking about this dick, and forget the real issues.

After all he is just one man, and not a very good specimen at that!!!

Ummmmmmm, isnt this a reason for dismissal???



Mutt.

Mutt.

Sure is!

What I meant to say is that this was the reason given, but apparently there was something else behind it.

Message came from the person themself!

Where he is? Abuspilot
 

He is not gone! I saw him at the Emirates Flight training center:O
