I found it on Find a pilot.com Posted on the 18th Aug. I know about the talk about new ops. I have been working in BKK. Kapt

PB Air and Happy Air.

Odd as PB Air just starting ATR operations

Seems to be true. Local media now reporting PB Air will commence Saab 340 operations with the 1st in September and a 2nd in October this year.

OZThai told me bout that too ZFT, They are hiring Expat cos no Local at d moment to fly it, suspect that will change as they train locals.
