Virgin Nigeria expats

Can you please tell me where are the Virgin Nigeria expat pilots living in Lagos? Is the accomodation included in the contract or did they have to arrange their own stuff?.

Thank you.

MD

They were staying in a decent* hotel at company expense last time I spoke to one of their crews. Common sense dictates I'm not saying which one.

(* for Lagos)

If you've been in Nigeria before you will know its not a big secret which hotels are full of expats, aviation and non-aviation related. Itīs only that I don't know which one is the one that V. Nigeria crews are using. But thanks anyway.

Roster!

There is no roster as yet! But they are trying to sort the issue out.

Yep K.Whyjelly, those nightfighters... dangerous stuff indeed
Remember once having had something to grab at the Crocodile, went there with a cab and decided to walk back (night time) to said hotel and bar... lucky me I was not alone but with 2 tigers of our crew as well... so we came in sight of the hotel but still had to cross the main road... suddenly sighted by a horde of very eager nightfighters all seeking entrance to the disco... and elsewhere... and so we just had time to run for cover... and yes, loads of Star

Sorry gals & guys, slightly digressing here, good ol' times.
