Back in your box Glads.... deal in facts and your usual diet of waffle and blustering rubbish and 'one liners'. You are always will be - the lunatic fringe..... too many late nights walking Orchard Road.
I dont think it is 'Reformasi' you have in your hand Glads.
Byeeee

Enough already! Play the ball not the player, all of you. If you have nothing to add to the topic under debate, then don't bother posting.
As a reminder, the title of this thread is "New Deal for New SQ Pilots." Keep it on track.

Well over 50%, with no doubt.
Foreigners in SIA have no right to vote within ALPA-S (Oh Kaptin M did not know that).
Foreigners in Singapore have no right to vote either.
Reformasi is in the hands of the locals only. Grown up with the intimidation of the LKY system, no one dares speak.
Hence even attorney general of Singapore became a fugitive once he spoke.
The truth prevails.

Hi Sick Squid,
Why do i get the impression that Gladiator and Titan are given plenty of slack to vent their spleen on ALL SQ related topics, whereas replies to some of their rubbish are given a very short rope. I don't see how any of Gladiator's posts here are related to the topic at hand, other than being another pointless venting of hot air.
Locgreen, that's exactly what it is, your impression, not reality. The cards are dealt equally by this Squid. Re-read my intervention above, it applies to all. Attack the argument, not the man, and respond to the topic or it's natural development; I don't care who it is, everyone gets the same treatment and it will continue that way.

Because we produce facts, real incidents, laws and rulings to back up what we say, rather than the emotional rantings of the likes of FO M.
Sadly, we are all just products of our enviroment; thankfully ours is not one ruled by a dictorial government accomplished in the art of noninvasive subliminal lobotomies.

why fellas are having a hard time keeping to the topic, is because there is nothing to talk about the topic.
Wrong company to chat about especially when all staffs are considered 'slave'.Need i elaborate further. Bet everyone hass something badd to add to list of SQ related BADD accolades.

6 months bonus and a salary increase in the new C.A. - nothing to be sneezed at.
Each to his own, if Glad is happy as a 737 F/O working in the States and enjoying the way of life there, good luck to him. Not every nationality has the opportunity to live and work in the country of his choice - similarly, some nationalities are virtually unrestricted because of their passports. Singapore offers (comparatively speaking) a reasonably high standard of safe living - SQ boasts a fairly modern fleet and used to provide modestly good re-muneration. Of pretty much all the Asian countries, Singapore offers the non-Asian a chance to live what he would term "a fairly normal lifesyle". If there were NOT the Glads and Titans, who couldn't adapt, it would probably have to be re-named Nirvana.

Captain M,
I speak on behalf of all those considering the move to nirvana .
I say again, if Singapore and SQ is nirvana for you, then why did you leave?
I have asked you this question before and you have conveniently avoided it.
Your credibilty is questionable. PS are you really a Captain?

Dear Titan, I left SQ because it was the end of my contract. I was offered an extension, on local terms - as a first officer - but I felt that I could advance myself more quickly (ie. to command) outside SIA, than to remain within their system......and I did! Within several months of leaving SQ, I obtained my initial jet command, thanks to a previous Australian airline captain who had trained me as an F/O some 12 years prior.
P.S. Yes, I really am a captain, and have been for about 5 years. But in reality, I can probably "feel" just as much for the F/O's - having been one for close on 18 years!! I still have many friends who should be in the lhs, and who - but for the mis-fortunes of times past - have been relegated to serve their time in a position they don't deserve, and there - but for the grace of "god" - go I.
Life is what you make of it.

Need I/we bring up the subject of cabin crew shoes again Kaptin M. The thread that finally proved you had never ever worked for SIA at least as a flight or cabin crewmember.
Kaptin M does what he does and the only thing he does, COUNTER PROPOGANDA.
Singapore government tactic used in all subjects related to Singapore on the World Wide Web. Civil servants who surf the web, find anti-Singapore discussions and then counter the argument.
Kaptin M was doing fine for a while, he/she has been and is learning about aviation as he/she goes along. The trouble is he/she got caught when he/she made a comment about SQ cabin crew female's footwear, in the cabin crew forum in 1999.
He/she commented that SQ female cabin crew change from shoes to sandals once onboard. SIA flight and cabin crewmembers remember differently.
In regards to pilot subjects at SIA, I would not take Kaptin M very seriously, he/she is a fake.

As a pilot with SQ, Glad, I had better things to occupy my grey matter, than foot fetishes of the "Singapore Girls" - perhaps it's an arab thing.
Little wonder your perception of Singapore and SIA is as perverted as the diatribe you spew out here, Gladdie, when you are able to determine my career by the footwear worn by the SQ cabin crew.
Time to get out your Ferrari and the (L)KY jelly again.......6 months bonus!! Not bad.

Kaptin M, you were the one inside cabin crew forum talking about cabin crew shoes, not I.
The issue was brought to my attention via e-mail by one of SIA cabin crew (a female).
You got caught Kaptin M.
Education for you, Iran is not an Arab contry.
Six months bonus! What does that have to do with you? You claim to be former SIA and now in Australia.
Better quit while you are behind, you are having difficulty keeping up with your own posts.
You can run but you can't hide.

Titan/Gladiator alias VH DSJ,tell me where I stated "and yet you were able to join another airline as a non-national F/O ... You gentlemen show a distinct lack of ability to display lateral thinking ability - something that IS required of professional pilots.
Because you shot yourselves in the foot, career-wise at SIA, don't try to prevent other aspiring pilots [who probably have more grit and determination than both of you combined] from realising their aspirations by your continual moaning and put-downs of EVERYONE else who has done the hard yards and made it. Face the FACTS - Singapore Airlines has employed thousands of expatriate pilots throughout its history. those who failed are in the vast MINORITY - however, you two have the "honour" of being counted among those failures. That's nothing to be proud of, nor to continually publicise your obvious INability to ACCEPT that YOU were the ones UNable to adapt. No-one else (who completes a contract in ANY foreign country) expects that that country and its people are going to change to your customs and lifestyles. My suggestion - and I think that you'll both agree with me here - is that you should both remain where you are now, in your own respective countries (albeit an adopted one for Glad - and wallow there in your delusions of granduer and own self-importance.

Sick Squid,
Saw your post. Agree fully so I assume Galdys will be asked to drop his irrational, unwarranted, and false statements which are more to do with his failure as an SQ driver and hatred of Singapore than those who actually enjoy the job, the terms, the place and Asia. He is and 'always be' the lunatic fringe... too many nights walking Orchard Road at night.
Without his irrational oneliners the debate could continue - having said that its been flogged to death and most are just plain bored by the likes of Titan and Gladys who have pirated the posting. Sensorship sometimes is what IS needed. Confine Gladys to the digibim... for good.
Hi Ho, Hi Ho its off to fly we go!

Kaptin M, you can not be more incorrect as the majority of F/O on contracts have taken the same path as I. So that makes it the majority.
Therefore is it us or is it the employer? There can be one lunatic, but were the majority also lunatic?
I don't think so.
It is also worth mentioning that SIA plays dirty tricks when it comes to contracts. Singapore court's opinion and not Gladiator's.
So grow up. The truth prevails.
