I am not just talking about Cypriot politics either
My quote from earlier should have made it clear that I was not just referring to Cypriot politics although..........................

Cyprus has some serious regulatory issues that would not be tolerated anywhere else. Incompetent European politicians failed to blacklist Cyprus or in fact take other appropriate actions before the black list came along.

This has been the situation for many many years.

It was due to my personal experiences of the situation that I was angered by
veraviametro's original post. There is nothing to talk about here except the state of Cypriot aviation (not just Cyprus Airways) and the actions of the captain.

Other issues surrounding this Captain (if there are any) have nothing to do with this thread

veraviametro, your behaviour follows certain corrupt traits that I thought I had left behind. The main issue here is why you posted in the first place and tried to rubbish the perfectly legitimate actions of a professional aviator.

My point, keep your corrupt Cypriot politics out of this issue!

My God ..

Yamaha you seem to be very bitter on the political situation in Cyprus.But what do you expect on a small island where everybody knows everyone.I would like to know your story.Did you ever work for Cyprus Airways?
As for the certain Captain, although that yes he went on holiday and screwed everyone up, that is the companys problem. What i mean by that is that the company is obviously under staffed.
As for the entry in the tech log , it is the right of the Captain to do that. Oh and by the way he was found innocent on the accusations against him that lead to his suspension.

Things you dont know

The specific captain was found innocence because the airline didhnt follow the correct procedures to suspend him.

And yes its his right to write on the tech log,but the person who we are talking about,founds problems always and very often...while others dont,coincidence that repeats its not a coincidence...he just prefairs to stay home and dont go to work.

He was claiming that the extension of the front gear was not satisfactory and the enginneers show him a BA same airplane of the same extension that they had just check that was next to Cyprus Air airplane and told him was within the limits,but he refused to accept that and wrote it on the tech log...

He noticed the problem before he departed from cyprus but he went to uk to leave the airplane there so he could make more impact on the airline...He didhnt care about the safety he cared about his own benefit.

This is an attitude of a man that deserves to be suspended and that day wont be far away.
