Actions speak louder than words ******. You have the chance to change things in GA if you have the will. Don,t follow every other bad operator out there.

Don't You Just Luv Cryptic Messages
Don’t know about anything else HA but you have to give goEs around due…..That’s a neat little trick, superfluous, but May use It myself at some stage in the future. 
BTW…..BSA sh!ts on Trumpies, as Long as you can keep them upright…..Can recall manY years ago my first ride on the beast from RAAF Base to the Mall in Adelaide, middle of Winter and bloody freezing cold.

Hold on a hi falutin minute.
Scenario = girl with newly issued CPL turns up in Darwin desperate for a job, goes and gets on the pi55 with some bloke knowing full well he's a potential employer, shags him, and then goes all septic because it doesnt turn into a farkin beautiful romance? Pray tell me, exactly what the hell did you think was going to happen love?
Gimme a break. I'm sure you only met the bloke purely by coincidence, that you had no idea who he was and that the thought of advancing your career prospects never crossed your mind at the time?
Chances are of course that none of this never happened and it's some made-up load of bullsh*t from a competitor, but if I was in that position and I was in the bar minding me own business and some wet-behind-the-ears CPL chick came and started chatting me up, I'd shag her just on principle before I told her to **** off. Anyone who tries to root their way into a job deserves exactly what they get.
as for the glued trumpie locks, well even if I did consider my boss to be a complete s.o.b. (and god knows I've worked for a couple of them in my time), the sort of mentality of someone that would go round vandalising people's private belongings, its a sign of a immature and bitter mind.

HA , given that Trumps 'sposed to run on the smell of an oily rag, and that (if you have the vertically split case 600) you will have an ample supply of said oily rags, then why worry about the fuel tank?
Watchdog , could you please email me re unrelated enquiry. [email protected]

You could try this link:Triumph Motorcycle Links
TT600. Nice choice of machine. Almost bought one.
Try the acetone in the keyhole H.A. It might need a few goes, but if you're careful it should work.
Check with Triumph to see if a lock barrel is available as a seperate part. You could drill it out and save the rest of the cap.
You're lucky they didn't put Armorall on your tyres. I saw the results of that a couple of times when I worked in a Suzuki dealership way back when

I normally try to keep to positive posts, but this time what the hell...
Maybe in future you should stick to poking hookers, perhaps it'd be cheaper in the long run.
But then again, needing their services as often as you would, maybe not... :o

NOW again back to the topic, I have to get a whole new cap system for the Trumpy... @$350... "

Ohh Dear
HA
I have just seen this one, after a long trip away.
Even though I don't like your methods, I can't accept vandalisim or damge to persoanl effects in any way. You have been subject to some very poor actions by this person or persons.
As for the other story, well allow this to be a warning for all. Especialy the new drivers, male or female, who are looking for work. Don't prostitute yourself to anybody for work, all that you do is open yourself up for abuse further down the line.
HA it was a low act to damage your bike, but at least think about the motivation of the person/s involved.
Treat them as you would have them treat you.
Personally I don't see the need to slag you off anymore, as you are your own worst enemy, and you advertise that fact.
So endeth the lesson.

H A,
I wouldnt wonder people could abuse your property and get away with it. as much as I disagree with the afore said actions, I can understand how easy it would have been.
Today after wandering around the airport, looking at all the facinating wrecks and stuff,. I wandered over to your hangar for a yarn and a look around............I found the doors wide open, an airplane sitting with the cowls open, the hangar door open and nobody in attendance at all. I did shout and generally make a heap of noise but nothing happened so I left.( was sorely tempted to raid ya cute lil drink fridge in the corner but I restrained me self...couldnt see any bourbons in there
).
Is DN that safe a place or were you sleeping off a hang over in the back of a plane somewhere or something?.
by the way I do like ya paint schemes,. thems sure is perty.

I've just caught up with this thread again. Can't believe what is being said. I honestly don't care how bad HA might be, as an employer, the day that we can rationalise a CRIME in the way its being done here is a very sad day indeed.
I thought this crime was committed by some petty-minded individual who is incapable of rising above a cowardly attack. But I'm not sure that I haven't seen similar things in this thread. It seems like there are a few people who have condoned this crime and I have to wonder if they'd do the same if the offence had involved their own personal property.
Now, if I've been interpreting this thread correctly, who is "Emily"?

A ****ing mazing
Obvious OzExpat that some cannot see the forest for the trees I also picked up the hidden message from goes around & nasa, yet some are so desperate to sink the slipper, they miss the obvious.
Really makes you wonder about their skill level

Well well well
HA - knowing you and your company, you know who did this so don't expect to find too much sympathy here. Yes it is still a crime but your organisation has broken laws itself to your commercial advantage (to make up for endemic ineptitude). You don't start the careers of 200 hour commercial pilots - they do, with their time, money and effort. They then make profit for you by using their training to fly poorly maintained aircraft for a wage in the bottom quartile of the curve. Only in GA does your low-rent owner operator mentality flourish.

For the record as Pprune land can be very vicous...
If we are so shonky why then (THESE ARE FACTUAL):-
Have we sailed through the recent heavy CASA ramp check rein, yes in DN, Arnhemland and Broome with nil problems?
Why did we pass a CASA audit several weeks ago?
Why are we the only piston company in Darwin approved by a certain geo technical company?
See the difference here is, that this is pure fact. We have proved to CASA that ex employees running to a district office doesn't cut the mustard. Bit like the HE AN scandal that seems to have died in the water.
I will be the first to admit that in the begining it was a very large learning curve, however it is just like a 200 hr pilot you learn over time. True in the begining things probably weren't done the best. But as I say all along I am very proud of NAC and our standing in the community. Remember bitter and twisted souls/ disgruntled ex employees never really explain the situation the best. Remember their is ALWAYS a reason that something happens...
Oh and I hate to rain on your parade but a 200 hr pilot hasn't done it, its like a "P" plater in a car, you have just been given a liscense to kill yourself... You need to be nurtured and trained to excel at what you do... How many other smucks give these guys a go???
HA
YIPEE got the bike back yesterday, you forget how much fun it is. You know it was 2 part araldite and not super glue in the lock hence not being able to disolve it..... My that Daytona is a good looken bike...

Well just logged onto this............I think its a very low act.
As for gryping ex employees, get on with life, something will turn up. I ask anyone if they think HA is a bad employer please tell me, WHO IS A GOOD EMPLOYER?.
Even the Guys at Emirates and alike whinge, its all relative.
The region where I am at the moment young starters with bareboned CPLS sit in the Right seat of C206 to log ICUS and load and unload, for no pay.
Generally the Industry in Australia is tough but fair, compared to places elsewhere, it supplies more opportunities, than say Europe for low time drivers.
