I have heard several rumours of some new departures/arrivals at executive level, in the pax end of things, are they true? W.O.B is now on board??? P.J. has taken a back seat, Liam B. has left for Germany, is there any truth in these rumours???

Top Loadie – yep, to be sure, the lady of the telephones really has gone.... Maybe TLQ will launch forth onto the UK register in a week or two......

EI - E I – O (is there really a kite with that reg??) – LB has gone to DLH, DoD is also on the way, as is TCP (off to the US of A?). Maybe more moves afoot????

To you boyz and gals in HL ops i wish you the best with that ol big bus TLQ cause she has a habit of sittin down at 0200z of a night shift leavin ya with 314 butts to protect,ouch!!

So, Boys and Gals...

Have heard few more ops left this week...

Who's gonna be at HL after few months? It sounds like everybody is leaving... Even have heard a rumour HL are moving their office from E/House to a village nearby (the premises used by some electronic company before). Is this the same building there Artac used to be? Is this true? Wud ops stay at the APT or it will be remote monitoring from 'the farm-house'?

Strange though no-one from sales left the company (yet?)



------------------
I like to move it

DM, at least one of the sales staff is leaving and also heard the relationship with UPA will become much closer in next few weeks.

The Legend lives on ... OpsBoy !!!!

the question that perhaps worries me most from the people ive spoken to is, why have they done away with their ops assistants, now just having 1 ops officer on shift at a time to not only deal with the freighter ops and the pax op when it eventually comes on line but to be the bloody receptionist aswell ?!!!!!!!!!

I'd love to see it in there when an A300F goes AOG and then the pax A300 goes tech aswell with just 1 person trying to sort it out! (not to mention the AN124 ops when they come online) Bloody good management decision that, I see they really have a grasp on reality!

Guess they will just have to learn the hard way and when they realise they need Ops assistanst again, they wont find any due to the poor salary.

mmmmmmmmmm, Id love to work for HLA

Heard that the AN124 ops will be monitered and run by Foylies ops team in LTN..

Although movement rumours are in the air..

Hi guys, spoke to a "Prime" employee yesterday, first group of cabin crew are just finished training - some ex-TLA people there - next group start next week. Aircraft in EMA on thurs, apparently work lined up, including confirmed flights ex - DUB. Talk of Hajj for winter, possibly Turkish stuff - and a rumour of two 747s!

Irish CC, are you talking pax 747's or Freighters?

If it's the latter, that rumour has been around for a long long time, another Pipe dream from HLA Management

hey darkstar
no pipe dream, just was shelved for a while
2 a/c were sitting last year in wichita with the "big H" already on the tail

my belieft is that both 747's are in pax config and are for charter/hajj flights !

If HLA/UPA move to a proporty near STN, will it be the old Translift house in Takeley. I mean PJ must still have the keys somewhere

Antnovman,

Think you drink when in Witchta! Don't think 747 really exist, I was there B4 Xmas and no-one seemed to knew and I am sure a 747 wirth H on the tail would not go unseen, even more if 2. I don't see why if pax would have H anyway as pax op is Prime. Cargo I doubt to.

Do I note the tinkle of little green TLA Ops feet through this thread??? SO how many of the the Ops staff of in DUB escaped to STN>?

and if there were Two 747s with bloody great Aitches on the tail in ICT they must have been hiding behind all those huge Kansas Oak forests - didnt see anything like that in ICT last year

Fourslocrews are better than :)

Foursloscrews,
In reply to your question of how many TLA Ops staff came to STN, answer is 1 but he is off to pastures new at the end of the month. (guess he saw sense!)

rumour has it they do have TLA's ground Handling manager and Cabin Services Manager, the latter as far as I know is due to depart shortly aswell!

Irish cc
If antonovman is right and has seen these 747's in ICT with an 'H' on the tail ( which I think is all a stir up), as Jamesov Bondski in a very russian spelt way put it, they cant be pax a/c as the pax op is called 'Prime ' from what I've been told.
