Comment on Passengers are now able to claim compensation for delayed flights of more than 3 hours by GE Man

Posted: 13 Nov 2012 08:27 AM PST

This month on the 6th of Nov MAS flight to London was delayed for more than 24 hours. The brand new Airbus A380 with a registration 9M-MNA was grounded due to low pressure in one of the brake accumulators.

The delay was avoidable if the engineering top managements were proactive and knowledgeable to solve the problem but they rather got busy to buy the parts for obvious reasons.

It has cost MAS more than half a million ringgit paying the for hotel’s and food for the passengers, not to mentioning the millions of ringgit loss of revenue due to non-utilization of aircraft and reputation as a premier carriers but also in the course fuming a long term MAS VVIP customer from Pahang which was totally avoidable with proper timely engineering approval/action.

Now with this new EC Regulation 261/2004 on passenger right to claim compensation for any flights delayed for more than 3 hours came into effect in October 2012, it will make a big hole in MAS pockets if all the passengers claim for compensations for this flight delay and this is not the first time .

It all trace to no other then the incompetent CEO of MAS Engineering bo(otak) head Azhari, under his direct order the replacement of the un-serviceable parts was actioned rather than seeking the engineering expertise of the experienced MAS technical team who suggested to do a swap of the parts within the aircraft brake systems.

This bo(otak) idiot should have just taken the advise from the experienced floor engineer to just swap its position and let the aircraft fly under concession @ MEL (Minimum Equipment List) by changing the parts/defect position – unfortunately bo(otak) has kept all the experienced floor engineers isolated from the decision making process. He eagerly instructed the AOG desk to buy the parts though it was ordered with the service provider.

Some may say, it's under warranty and Airbus Industries will compensate. How would Airbus going to compensate MAS if the aircraft will be able to fly if they swap the parts/defect position and fly under MEL concession, and finally after wasting a day the decision was taken to swap the parts and it took only 1 hour to swap the location of this part and make the aircraft ready for its flight.

Finally, once the aircraft was back from London after the long flight delay, he eagerly instructed the AOG desk to use the parts that was bought under his order for obvious reasons.

Well that's not all, this bo(otak) Azhari is now in cohort with certain top manger to “cook up” MAS 3rd and 4th quarter financial results.

This is the main reason why every time some one ask this bo(otak), tak malu kah dia still hanging on to his post even thou’ all the pariah men that were parachuted during the share suap have already quit MAS.
Bo(otak) said he is needed.

YES, he need you to hold and delay millions of dollars in payment to vendors/service providers like RR, PW, GE, EADS, Goodrich, Honeywell, Hamiltons, …. you name it .

Most of the payment is more than six month due and you bo(otak) head are giving stupid excuse, raising objection and withholding payment as disputed invoices and not ledger posting as debt payable, most are straight forward contracts for supply of parts and services in which there is no excuse for dispute to not paying on-time.

In layman's term and understanding, the only reason MAS is delaying/not paying the vendors on-time is that they will keep/show it as cash in hand and will declare 3rd / 4th quarter result as improving and may even making small profit !! Trying to cheat lah ni.

The worrying thing is that if this bo(otak) head keep on fooling around and doing this kind of game with this reputable international vendors and service providers it will have a long-term adverse impact on MAS even after this bo(otak) head is long gone from MAS.
This could cause looooong technical delay if this were to happen ie vendors / suppliers pull out .

Not paying and / or dilly delay paying the service provider / vendor ? Macam pernah aku dengar cerita saperti ini ya , tapi di airline mana ya ? ?

Azhari is taking another poison pills for MAS so that MAS will be in bad book with this vendors for a long time to come…
