i am able to say it because i know it to be a fact.

but if you understand human nature you will understand that sometimes passion is no substitute for ability or common sense.

i know many racing drivers who are passionate about racing but will never win a race.

and just for clarity i am not on their side, i am independant and have tried to help and be constructive in getting help for those i can help on all sides, remember when any business goes down the pan there are many losers, and not just the owners, and going down the pan is the worst case for those owed money is it not ?

Bye we appreciate your help for the fellow aviators and shows your a good person. However these pilots did however travel over 5,000 to 10,000 miles with a contract in hand that said they would be paid monthly along with perdium and airline ticket money etc. these tickets varied between 900 euros to 3,000 euros.

But for them to be told day after day they would be paid by the head person in Flight Operations flight operations director Dara Shahnawaz and wait over two to three months was just plain corrupt, and its just not them that have been affected but there families also.

They all have also been exposed to hazardous duty conditions of the daily killings and bombings in Karachi, Quetta, and Islamabad that have really taken a turn for the worse the past couple of months.

Just two weeks ago a road side bomb 2km from the Ramada hotel in Karachi killed thirteen people.


Now some of them have contacted the chairman and he has the nerve to say well they left. Who in the hell would stick around with IEDS going off daily and be expected to work for nothing for months at a time and on top of that just days before the last five pilots left the Ramada hotel they were confronted by the front desk to pay for there rooms as the company had not paid there invoice in over ninety days. I may add airlblue and other crews stay there and they did not have that drama or embarrassment in public.


Air Indus and these so called wealthy owners had a chance to make it right and settle paying all people including expats and down to the local workers just making three hundred dollars a month. and not even having the decency to at least pay half of what they were owed and airline tickets is grave and shows they have no class or morals.

One thing is certain they will be out of business just like the other start ups who try to cut corners and there will be accountability.

The few expat pilots left are rotating out before there visas drop dead and lining up there tickets to get out.

It's unfortunate crooked business men continue to dabble in aviation and they put the screws to the industry and burn people.

My only concern in all of this is the safety of passengers flying on Air Indus.

people get stiffed all the time, i myself had a product stolen from me worth over a billion quid, and who gives a damn, nobody.

Its only money at the end of the day but i cannot stand by and watch people die.

If all is being said is true, and i have no reason to doubt it, then Air Indus must be investigated today by the Pakistan CAA on safety grounds.

If they declare them safe to continue then fine, but we have to have this now before its too late.

The only way this will be put to bed is for an independant investigation by the CAA.

i am sure the owners will have no problem with a thorough investigation as it goes with the business, and if there is nothing to hide it deffo should not be a problem.

if allegations are being made of unsafe ops, and ignored by the operator then they have to be investigated independantly.

as i said i am only concerned with safety and nothing else matters at this time, all the rest can be sorted, be we can't raise the dead and i personally do not want to see a smoking hole and wish i had done something to stop it happening.

its up to you chaps in territory to blow the whistle, stop flying, strike, protest whatever it takes to get this done.

If i were air Indus, i would call in the CAA myself and get them to go through the AOC and check all is well or not.

the biggest problem with fixing any problem is first admitting you have a problem.

NOT trying to tell anyone what to do or ramming it down your throats, just my opinion on the way forwards.

That fatal plane crash of Bhoja airlines has a connection to Air Indus the CAA has the same Idiot POI inspector Sikander Hayat that is now facing lawsuits from the families that lost loved ones in that fatal accident.
Air Indus is letting the POI fly both left and right seats with passengers.

This same inspector just had another incident under his watch seven passengers had to be hospitalized recently after one of the aircraft had pressurization issues and continued to fly and it was so bad that there are drums blew out and were bleeding.

I bet if the families of the Bhoja crash knew they would be knocking on the door of the CAA demanding answers grabbing this guy nnthe shirt and kicking his butt.

I have been the victim and witness to Air Indus evil deeds but Capt Sikander Hayat has nothing to do with the good or bad image of an airline his job is to take the cadets further up and get them going on the 737s that is all he has nothing to with the management affairs of the airline so lets keep people out who have nothing to do with the corporate profile of any airline

Zoom rider thanks for the support everyone needs to keep pressing the CAA to pull the AOC of this shoe string operation it's doing disservice to the flying public and the local and expat workers.
The DO there needs to be taken out behind the wood shed and get his butt kicked.
Please send me a PM I want to talk some more looking to do a class action suit against Abdul Wahad and Abdul Wahid assets.

i have been trying to help in the background with some of these issues and have been talking directly with one of the directors.

i have been accused of standing by and watching a crash happen and find this most unfair,

therefore i will no longer try and help and would like to make it clear i have no business, financial, or any type of connection with Air Indus.

i am acquainted with the owners in a personal capacity and have done business with them in the past and am not owed any money by them.

i have tried to help out in this situation and this will now stop and i will not have any further contact with the owners of Air Indus.

i have no inside knowledge of the operation and know only the directors and do not know any staff or employees below that level.

i've done my best to help, but some just want to use me as a whipping boy for them, well i'm afraid i'm the wrong person for that. if you have problems with Air Indus you people in territory have to act to sort it out, sniping at me won't help as i'm not the CAA or Air Indus.

Bye you were a good middle man to try and assist the locals and expats that have been taken advantage of by Abdul Wahid and Abdul Wahad.

They just kept everyone going in circles with different lies everyday like the bank was closed, the rupee is low today against the dollar, or the chairmans in a meeting tilll six oclock etc.

Like you said the ones that are owed money take a moment to write to the Pakistan FIA, Pakistan CAA Director General and Secretariat, the Prime Minister's office, Pakistan Consulate or Embassy office in your country, and the local newspaper that has been doing great work that has been following the money laundering story from the beginning.

You can find the contact email addresses for all of the above by just doing a google search.

And if you have the means hire a lawyer and take them to court like the others are starting to do.

And let them all know how you have been screwed by these thiefs and there Director of Operations doing there Dirty work of recruiting people under false pretenses.

Justice will prevail in the end.

What i'm saying is that the HEAD of FLIGHT OPERATIONS is equally responsible to the mishandling of the affairs in Air Indus, bosses are not alone to be criticized

The Director of Operations Dara is working in concert with those two knuckle heads after all he has three wives to support, so he is pocketing employees perdium money to pay for his affaires.
He has always the same old line I am gong to see the chairman or the chairman is in a meeting what crooks.
Wahid and Wahad know what's going on with the day to ay operations they are at the airport a couple times a week.
They are just not real sharp a keeping there lies straight.
They are just all sleeze balls withe there days numbered.

Another flight today made an emergency landing back at OPKC due to pressurization failure and hence, this has happened for 2 or 3 times now in the past 1 month

Yea the last one last month was a pretty good one about seven passengers had to be admitted to the hospital with blown ear drums and blood coming from there ears and nose.
Aircraft was grounded for several days as they did not have the money to buy parts from PIA so they just penciled whipped it back in service.
And like you said it just keeps going and going like nothing happened lol.

Hi
I was flying for this company and i am telling you ,if you do not like to stay a live just fly for them.
without MEL there is no go . one Captain with his FO they have lost Engine Nr 2 in FL220 because the were unable to imbalance the fuel they switched the wrong fuel pumps. the Captain was leased from PIA , next day he went back to PIA and now he is flying again there.
the CAA knows all those stories but they are getting money to shut up. most of them in the CAA are corrupt .you keep your AOC as long as you pay .

It's been all documented the CAA Director General and Secretariat were hand delivered a letter with all the details. In that letter the ICAO secretary, FIA, and Prime Minister were also copied in that letter.

You are 100 percent correct about the corruption these dirt bags are being flipped Few c notes here and there to look the other way but the fat lady is singing and heads are going to roll.

So for the record when the s@@@ hits the fan and there are fatalities or FIA shuts them down they will be all accountable for not taking action and will end up in jail and meeting new boyfriends or getting knocked off by the families that lost loved ones.

The local newspaper also has a copy of this and is completely aware what is going on, and they have gone on the record with the spokesperson of the CAA.

Also the few remaining pilots should be on notice all of your licenses are on the line, the CAA/ICAO/FIA knows everything being violated flight duty times etc you get my drift.
You are going to be up the creek without a paddle with no recourse, just for a few lousy hours of jet time.
