Ex CAA, ex RAAF try hard/wanna be with little to contribute other than an ego and delusions of grandeur? I’ve not come across a bigger industry bottom feeder. Has a firm hold on the title of the greatest tool I’ve met in the industry (and I’ve been here a while). AF would be wise to cut ties with the clown if it’s the bloke I’m thinking of. The company culture would struggle and ultimately fail where there’s any involvement from this winner. No good will ever come from any arrangement with him. His ego has been writing cheques that his limited ability simply cannot cash for a long time. I’ve not known anyone in my nearly 30 years in this industry to be so universally disliked.

Yeah, pretty sure PB isn't Ex-RAAF, I do remember him being involved in the Air Force Cadets though in Brisbane, so possibly he's been misrepresenting himself to everyone.
Couldn't agree more with everyones sentiments, a more universally disliked man I have not heard of in Aviation other than perhaps Alan Joyce. |
Just an observation - I haven’t seen too many GA organisations stay in business after a fatality...

https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/wiki.php?id=191
https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications...aair200003949/ not 100% on the second. But there is that missing MAF GA8 up that way too. |
Scare frontier had a fatal in 2001 as well so if they were the sort of outfit to be put off by that sort of thing they’d be long gone by now!!
I’m not able to post a link but there is a PPRune thread on the matter, “Lake Evella crash findings”. Organisational safety culture was roundly criticised IIRC |
Back up and running now
just heard they have found a cp and back in business now. Hope it goes well for them now. |

Top End - frontier grounded?
Reading this forum for a while, but I need to confirm a rumour.
Rumour has it that Air Frontier isn't flying due to having lost their chief pilot. Anything to substantiate the rumour and when they will be flying again? Perhaps Darwin pilots could go and have a look. |
I think this has been resolved - try here
http://www.pprune.org/pacific-genera...ier-air-3.html or did the new CP trip up |
The way I heard it, CP left, another CP was recruited who also left after not much time in the job hence the grounding The job has gone from AFAP though so maybe they have been successful? That or they’ve decided to call it a day? |
How long will this cp last. |
Their dedicated clientele were sitting out the front the other day looking pretty keen to go back home.
|
Ok, still unconfirmed then.
With two (or now three?) looking for a Chief Pilot how will this end...? 1. Northern Territory Air Services 2. ChartAir 3. Air Frontier? Acc. AFAP |
We did a few flights for them while they were grounded but they’re back in the air again now. |
Surprised those clients don't just stay with you instead of going back to Scare Frontier ey Pilotette? :P

Having said that, our machines are pretty flat out from now until Sept so we probably wouldn’t be able to facilitate them on an ongoing basis...unless we bought more machines...🤔 |
