They're in Crawley. That alone might be a good reason to run.

Thumbs down

I agree.....run away...they belong to Air Atlanta Icelandic and it is run by an Icelandic bandit....Look at what Iceland is doing in refusing to pay the UK for the losses incurred during the collapse of Icelanding banks

All codheads are the same.

Airborne Personnel and Mountain High are one and the same .....I dont have the time or the space to explain the reasons why...however Im sure there are many people who will answer your question.

Mountain High, Wings Recruitment, et al

STAY AWAY FROM THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!

IF you have no other job option, READ every word of any contract they demand that you sign. DO NOT pay any expenses yourself.

The mere fact that one agency, is using several names, based in several offshore locations, to conduct their business from ONE office in Crawley is cause not to proceed.

If you never take heed of anything on this website again, take heed of this advice.

Mate, stay far, far, far away - also if they offer their b747-400 PTF scheeme. They, i.e Mountain High, Airborne, AAI have a long trail behind them paved with people left in a more miserable state than you can imagine. Guys have been forced to sell their houses because they were xxxxed left, right and centre. These outfits don´t even reside at the bottom of the barrel - they live under it.
My best advise if you go own this trail is NOT to considder whatever "contract" they offer as an agreement or contract whatsoever.
Pm if you want info

What happens in Crawley?
My remark was flippant, but it is a bit of a dump and you don't want to be anywhere near the High Street on a Friday or Saturday night unless you enjoy the stench of vomit mixed with cheap perfume and aftershave.

The A320 contract is for an airline in Latvia. I am realiably informed the airline is run by genuine and very nice people. Unfortunately, they have been tricked into using the Crawley gang as their crewing agent.

At the bottom of the ocean you will find crabs, then crab crap, below that reside Mountain High, Airborne, Wings Recruitment.

Latvia is fine, contact smartlynx or whatever the hell they are called, DIRECT, if you have the experience I am sure they will be happy to hear from you.
And you WILL enjoy Riga really, you will.

WARNING-WARNING;
Here's a 2018 update:
Mountain High is where Primera had all it's contractors - Flight Deck as well as Cabin Crew.
5 months before the bankruptcy, MH "isolated" all Primera contracts in ASTA - a sub-company, with Malta-office (read: letterbox).
The day after the Primera bankruptcy, ASTA "ceased operation", and no salaries owed has been paid out. In my case in excess of EUR 20.000 with bonusses and sign-on fee.
Huge losses and financial grief is widespread - from UK Airbus Pilots to exploited Romanian Cabin Crews.

I know PPRuNe does not want us to use Capitals, but i'm sure they will accept this exception, if they only knew...

DONT EVER DO BUSINESS OF ANY KIND WITH MOUNTAIN HIGH CONSULTANTS OR ANY OF THEIR "PARTNERS"!!!

F.. Icelandic bandits!

If you check their website mountainhigh.info;

Under Group partners: First 2 Ressource F2R, Direct 2 Work D2W and Airborne.

ASTA has been removed now - can't remember the fifth one, which has been removed recently.

STAY AWAY!
