The 5/6ss accept any currency you can give them but I suggest you buy a kite as per bupacs Curry Aviation ads and fly that, save your money.

half wing

Think about it Vince, do birds with one wing able to fly?

This guy obvilously doesn't know how to fly a plane but has ridden in it for so long. My guess is it's the Chief Ground Instructor

MW or Punong Kahoy is his pet name.

hey, there are no more enrollees for course 12, does that mean MW will get kicked out soon ? he can take the CFI with him. I've heard he (CFI) and CW has been constantly harassing Omni for more flying hours and then they are trying to look for another school behind their backs. How ungrateful. If not for Omni, we would not be flying.

JV 126: The guy can't win, he is trying his best to speed up your progression through flying and you complain! Would you prefer he does nothing!

Four Stripes: You clearly have no knowledge about the high standards required to wear an RAF Brevet. As a Navigator I gurantee he knows more than you about Nav groundschool subjects, just as a Flight Engineer or Electronics officer would know more about the Technical. For further reading I can point you to the stories of several "one wingers" who won the Victoria Cross for outstanding personal bravery and airmanship!

Ayla: For starters he is no longer in the RAF so wearing a brevet does not mean anything in civilian aviation. He might have been a good navigator but the cadets don't need a navigator they need someone to teach them JAR ground school stuff, not someone to leave them in the classroom and let the CBT take care of the teaching. Lastly The Chief Ground Instructor of this FTO did not pass the ATO Ground Instructer Licensing exam he actually failed 3 times and you talk to me about standards......This guy is the worst chap to wear the RAF Brevet!

Four Stripes: I don't know the guy, you were implying that having one wing somehow makes someone unsuitable to teach pilots, which it does not.

No where does it state anything about teaching, and it remotely implies unsuitability in any manner!

Sorry 4 Stripes, I misinterpreted your comment about "birds with 1 wing not being able to fly" as being derogatory, which clearly was not your intention!

Ignore my rant.

As of press time, Mark Pearson already resigned from his post.

If you can't stand the heat in the kitchen, go out (for MP - get lost)

so who is making all the "high level" decisions now at Clark Av?
I believe that would be the CEO of Alpha Aviation Group and the newly appointed Senior Consultant already at CA.

Heard from some of the students that their training now will not be finished till 2010.

What the ????

I have visited CIA at Clark, Japan Airlines at Napa CA, and Lufthansa at Goodyear AZ. The biggest difference is JAL and DLH are interested in quality training to develop pilots for their airlines. The main emphasis at Clark seems to be to try and make a profit for Alpha.

It would be nice if Cebu Pacific or another asian operator or group of operators would aquire CIA. But that would require a substantial investment, buying CIA from Alpha and then getting the required IFR aircraft and another A320 Simulator. But in the long term it would probably be a good business decision ensuring them of a steady stream of pilots trained to their requirements.

In reality they would probably be better off starting from scratch and not have to pay for Alpha's mistakes and bad reputation.

Angry No Compensation For Any Opportunity Loss

I heard the CEO from the mother company came to clark av and as usual, bulls***s explanations came out.. The issue of compensation to the cadets who have been in clark for more than a year was not really given attention... No matter who comes in, whether the owner of the company itself, they couldn't provide an honest and sincere answer..!!!!

This will reflect their reputations and will affect their other investments in middle east and in europe!!!
