Yes indeed sad that flydamnit is no more. Well heard that unseen hands in MAS management behind the move to get flydamnit out of cyber space.
Well the present MAPA council seemed to have done a reasonably good job keeping the boys happy as they did get some relatively bigger crumbs during the last negotiations. It was a rebound after the previous lean years, so most people are not complaining as loudly as before.

1.5%+RM15 pay increase
In the 80's when Yoga and Lek were prezs, not too bad. We had some good times, some tricky periods ( sic ) but generally no big pain. Then Lek's VP started his dirty tricks which Lek couldn't nip in the bud and Lek was dethroned. Up came Magic which got us the 1.5%+15 ringgit fiasco.............Next Lek's ex VP weaseled into Prez's position and it was a slalom down to the dumps for MAPA. The snake here..............read all about it in MH 653 hijack, need I say more?
Ha ha Raj, I remember flying with a skipper after that who remarked that his neigbour's Filipino maid had a bigger pay revision than that! Her basic pay was RM350 those days and based on the pressure from the maid agency his neighbour upped her pay to RM380 which was much more than 1.5%+RM15 and she got her Christmas bonus too!
Why do you think MAS is such a pathetic place, why the whole bolehland is an Asian Zimbabwe..............people accept **** that's dished out.

If MAS is so pathetic, please leave and save us the whining. The sandpit and kimchiland beckon........
Tony will not have much say about MAPA representing AK pilots. At best he is just a front man for the politicos laundering public money. Also what great things can MAPA do for the non MAS pilots except lead them down a garden path.

MAPA prez cheated on membership number?
This is something that troubles me, a couple of years ago a colleague alerted me to a post on another Pprune thread that a former MAPA president had forced the secretary to allot him a more senior membership number that was from a senior member who had let his membership lapsed. At first I thought it was just some silly allegation, but lately as I started flying the wide bodies I keep hearing it amongst the senior pilots who claimed that it was absolutely true! This is something really not right and I wonder what the ROS would have done to MAPA had this been reported.
It is amazing, why would he do that for? Did the MAPA president need to be amongst the senior members? I am sure senior MAPA members can confirm once and for all if this was the case.

Many suns ago, some former MAPA council members categorically confirmed that this was indeed the case. Acouple of former presidents also confirmed that this indeed happened.
As far as to whether the ROS would have taken any action against MAPA over this matter, I have no idea BUT I AM SURE HE/SHE WOULD HAVE HAD A GREAT LAUGH about how low a MAS pilot could get to! The MAPA staff must have very low opinion of MAS pilots letting the president do that. And if the management pilots or had the MAS general management known this, they certainly understood how stupid or silly MAPA was... any credibility or dignity down the jamban!

Vel & Telur,
Someone is gonna say you guys are " outing " that creepy crawley lato g string. If there was anyone capable of such low tactics to gain any " respect " or attention, it is this low life! Yep, I can categorically say that ex MAPA presidents have confirmed that this was the case.

The theory amongst some crew is that many might have been conned into the jet airways recruitment and lost big.............hey, it's not my theory, just what i heard. Digging into the archives for the jet recruitment in Malaysia will reveal quite some startling info.
