So,

What is the criteria for long service !

Wiil bonded staff be included for consideration ?

Will those on the gravy train be excluded ?

Will the list of incidents agains your licence be the measuring stick ?

Will the judgement be the flight time achieved at BCL ?

Can contactors be included ?

Will blackmailers be excluded ?

Those questions and more will be answered at the next celebratory funtion.

Stay Tuned for the Next exciting installment !

What is the criteria for long service ! Anything longer than 1 rotation/3 months

Wiil bonded staff be included for consideration ? Only after you have paid off your bond- expect terms and conditions to change soon though

Will those on the gravy train be excluded ? Of course, they have already had eneough, DUH!

Will the list of incidents agains your licence be the measuring stick? The more incidents you have, the longer you will be staying there to pay for them, so YES.

Will the judgement be the flight time achieved at BCL ? Yes, but taken along with the above Q only

Can contactors be included ? Contactors don't need anything to work, contractors however, sorry-oh read the small print

Will blackmailers be excluded ? Blackmailers will get 5% of what you each get, how do you think this got to this point in the first place, Company Generosity??

Contractors

Don't be so hard on them....I mean it take serious talent to be a contractor and cock up on a daily basis and still keep your job. Correction...negotiate a higher salary while being diciplined...

Snoop upgrade !

Roty,

All is not completely lost we have another Captain.

One local given four bars, and if Im not mistaken already has the salary. The others apparently "disappointed".

Chief Pilot reported to be competing hard to retain pilot from swinging to NHSL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leaving

Roty

I seem to recall that the unnamed leaver has made no secret of his ambition to depart to go elsewhere. It would also seem that he may be some way nearer his ambition, but not quite made it ! A little ways south of target perhaps his navigation failed him.

Maybe he can work on that soon !

A couple of things spring to mind.........................

Self praise, is no praise !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and
I recall a story of two local scolarship cadets,
One tells the other that he didn't deserve to be on the scholarship, and that he of course did deserve to be on it .
They did both complete and go on to perform with excellence .

Was the statement out of arrogance or inferiority ?

Cameldung,

I didnt suggest anything of the sort !

South of Target

The only thing south of target is NHSL or possibly Briko......or is it east or northeast? I'm having trouble with my direction this morning.......must have had too much to drink last night....

Exclamation Slippery Slope

It would appear that the problems do not stop with the need for crews to replace those departing or departed.

The training manager has allegedly resigned from his position although he will continue to act as a training Captain.

This must tell a story in itself !!!!!!!!

Explanations ?

slippery slope

Scotsman,
Could it be that the man has finally given up on the Idea of having MicroManagers pull his chains. That says alot about the what's going on down there, Two TCs in one month.....

Talking Inside Info

Rtoor Towuntoo,

That would certainly seem that that is the case.

Question is, Why did he take so long ?

LATEST SCOOP !

Rumour has it that a line trainer who has already tendered his resignation, Will be travelling to US to undertake a CFII course !.................

Is he expecting perhaps to become the replacement sim instructor examiner with BCL ?

Will this improve his instruction skill ? or maybe even his Instrument skills ?or even his employability ?

UNLIKELY !

ST

STAYTUNED

Inside Info

Scutty,

I'm all in favour of people going out and making themselves marketable, but I don't think this fella knows that he's not all that he thinks he is...

Talking Ethics

Would this perhaps fall under the categories as listed in the Code of Integrity I wonder.


A Thought !

Is a CFII such an asset for one as highly experienced ?......................
