STAY AWAY!

What 737-300/400s are they talking about? and what SIM?. Only PAL has a FFS for the classics which has been offline for a long time now! The other SIM is an A320 belonging to 5J in Clark Aviation.

Eagle Trans Asia Airways Corp.
If this airline is in the Philippines then it is one stealthy one
Dont know of any local commanders jumping to this "airline" they plan to train every pilot from zero?

Eagle Trans Asia

Well to be honest , does not seem fraud to me...i am one of the student here in Eagle Trans Asia and things seem pretty good....We have experienced and highly professional Captains here from All Nippon Airways and qualified instructors From Philippine Airline
Its been two weeks since the ground classes started....and all seems well...They are not only buying 737/300/400 but also buying a couple of BAE 146-200...
Being a new airline , they are facing hindrances but I guess thats obvious...
Mr. Nino Louis A Jamili, the president of this airline was a flight inspector in CAAP and a well renowned person here ....
Guys as they say , Dont jump to conclusions and wait for the results...So lets wait for the results for this youth airline ...

I wonder if Taiwan based "TransAsia Airways" has any comment on the name of this airline?

I know of one ex-DAL pilot that lives in the Philippines, now, that might be responsible for all this.
However, he has bilked many out of funds before, with a non-existant aviation agency.
IF it is the same fellow, stay far far away.
Just some friendly advice from a guy whom has been around a long time, and has seen this type of modus operande before.

interesting

interesting bit from seair's website here guys:

Notice on B-737 Training and Employment Programs


Please be advised as SEAIR has received several reports concerning B737-300/400 training and employment programs allegedly being offered and conducted by SEAIR. We wish to warn the public that such offerings and programs may be fraudulent.
SEAIR currently does not offer any B737-300/400 training and employment program. Further, we have not authorized any person entity or company to conduct or to market training and employment programs in behalf of SEAIR.////


oh well, could they be related, despite the obvious name difference? I wonder who Mr Jamili is.

411A. I think you have the wrong person. I know the president/owner of ETA and he is not a pilot. He has however, 5 sets of B737 crews ( all Filipinos) already for the airline and 737 students. There is also one Filipino trainee F/O hired as well.

So, let's not jump into conclusions and hang the man before he is found guilty.
I think "Crab Mentality" is again about to show it's ugly head.

I sincerely hope so, as separating folks from their cash in a down market, is not so nice.
Best of luck for the new carrier, it it's legit.

hi 411A, I don't condone scamming people as well. If he is a scammer then damn him to hell.... but let's give him a chance to prove himself as a lot of the B737 crews that got laid off from Air Phil has another shot of being employed not to mention the new trainee pilots (Indians and Filipinos), cabin attendants and others. I too would want it work as a friend of mine (pinoy) has been hired by them too.

Apparently, they will also be getting BAe146, 733/734s, and a 767

Anyone who hands over cash to a start-up airline (that apparently doesn't even have a physical plane yet) is taking a very big roll of the dice. You know what they say about crooks and aviation.

You might win. You might lose. Tread very carefully.

A question to the posters who say they are employed/enrolled with this airline...Who is the owner? or who are the financial backers? B737,BAE 146, B767....a huge varied fleet for a small startup...and talks of buying aircraft off the shelf...literally! what routes do they plan to start?

Ex CAAP inspector is the airline president? hmmmm no wonder things might be moving at a faster pace than usual! hope no safety norms are flouted!

It stated with the name of SEA AIR then became Eagle Trans Asia.
I just want to know when are the aircrafts coming???
Also their proposed fleet is too big.

You hit the nail on the head!

Come on guys it is totally crazy that a start up airline (which would therefore NEED to attract people to join) would ask your money up front for a "training" program. This is a clear scam!
