OMG!!!! For the head of training (MMFT)to write what he has wrote (on here) must surely be worrying for the remaining pilots of mega. to openly admit and criticize the management on a public forum can only reflect his un - professionalism, stupidity and inexperience
also, company confidentiality and disclosure agreements must have been breached to say the least

It sounds to me like there is a lot of 'management' going on and very little 'leadership' .
It's quite easy to be a manager, but leading asks questions of your character, integrity, and experience. Not everyone can answer those questions.

Briefing ...threats…. HoT
Yes, the post that the FO mega maldives head of training wrote on this site recently has been deleted..
what he wrote only highlighted the incompetence of himself and the mega management. obviously they saw this and had him removed it asap. god damn shame it's not still on here because it would have served to demonstrate to pilots thinking to join mega..of what a circus this company really is.

Sounds like it's all coming to an end. Millions owed to suppliers, Maldivian government tax and to lessors, most of the fleet AOG. One of the B763's about to be repossessed and senior management not been paid this month!
Mis-management to an extreme - best of luck to those out there!

Wheels up for Mega
Well that's it folks; mega officially finished. The owner sent an email out today and that's it. The lessor wants the aircraft back, end of contract and bad payments. The bull***t doesn't stop though. They would still have everyone believe they going to re-launch

No worries guys,there are plenty of jobs in japan or even Jet2 if you feel that way inclined. Watch out for the fat guys there , though 
Ive never seen Mega at any airport ive fliwn to , so ultimately an fairly inconsequential loss to the flying community.

Despite what went on at the top managerial level, there was some good people there that tried very hard to make it work in a difficult environment.
Pilots, cabin crew, engineers and ground staff are sadly losing their jobs but hopefully new opportunities will emerge.
Good luck to all.
