Sunrise Aviation Graduates Students Proficient In Glass-Cockpits

PR Log (Press Release) – Mar 22, 2010 – Ormond Beach, Florida – Sunrise Aviation, a flight school and airport business at the Ormond Beach Municipal Airport, announced today that the first two students have graduated from their Cirrus Glass-Cockpit Transition program for Professional Pilots.  Meshal Alemran and Haron Barnawi, both from Saudi Arabia, completed the 7 month, 270 flight hour course this month.  The two students flew 20 hours in the Cirrus aircraft, split between a simulator and the airplane.  They now return to their home country and will apply for first officer positions at Saudi Arabian Airlines.  While pilot hiring has subsided in much of the world, substantial hiring continues in Saudi Arabia and other gulf coast countries.
Sunrise Aviation utilizes the Cirrus SR-20 for their glass-cockpit transition course.  The Cirrus SR-20 combines speed, comfort, and safety with advanced avionics.  In addition to two large flight displays that include GPS and WAAS navigation, the Cirrus SR-20 has an autopilot, flight director, traffic avoidance, and inflight weather depiction capabilities.  The simulator used for the course is manufactured by Aerosim Technologies, Inc. and replicates both the avionics and flight characteristics of the Cirrus airplane.    The simulator includes a visual system that simulates day, night, VFR and instrument meteorological conditions.  The FAA classifies the simulator as an AATD (Advanced Aviation Training Device).
Sunrise Aviation, Inc. has several Professional Pilot courses designed for international students seeking airline pilot careers all over the world.  Today, students from as far away as Eastern Europe (Ukraine and Czech Republic), Western Europe (UK, Spain and Portugal), Middle East (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, and Jordan), and Asia (India, Malaysia and Indonesia) come to Sunrise Aviation to become commercial pilots.
Domestic students also find a variety of individual pilot courses and packages at Sunrise Aviation suitable for students training to be professional pilots or those just trying to have some fun or seeking private pilot certification.  Some of the newest courses offered at Sunrise Aviation not only focus on learning the latest avionics but also provide additional experience for pilots seeking to prepare themselves better for an airline pilot career.  There currently is active legislation in Congress requiring first officers not only to have a minimum of 800 flight hours but also demanding that some of that experience be in an airline or crew-type environment.  Sunrise Aviation already offers time building courses, type ratings, flight instructor experience, and even programs providing 100 or more hours of experience in an airline-type aircraft and environment.
Sunrise Aviation owns 38 aircraft utilized for rental and flight training.  The newest addition to Sunrise Aviation’s fleet is the Cessna 172 SP Nav III with Garmin G-1000 (glass-cockpit) avionics.
Sunrise Aviation was founded in 1983.  They provide maintenance, parts, flight training, fuel and additional services to local and transient pilots and aircraft owners at Ormond Beach Municipal Airport.  They recently announced expansion plans including adding additional fuel services and a new hangar/office complex.

No More Complaints With the Removal Group Customer Service Team

PR Log (Press Release) – Mar 10, 2010 – The Removal Group customer service team are there to ensure that all complaints are dealt with smoothly and efficiently. With only two members in the team, customers can rest assured that they will not feel lost in a large department with lots of different teams for different issues, like many other companies have.
Karen Moffat, the Customer Service Manager at Removal Group, said: “We hope our customers do not have a lot to complain about, and some of this is reflected in the positive removal group reviews on our site, but obviously things don’t always run smoothly. We at Removal Group understand that, so as well as the customer having their own dedicated removal co-ordinator, we have a customer service team to assist with any further problems or complaints.
“If the customer has a complaint to make, for example if their goods have been delayed or haven’t arrived, they would usually check with their co-ordinator first. If the co-ordinator cannot help, they email the customer a complaints procedure, allowing the customer to log a complaint officially in writing.
“On submission of a fully completed complaint form, a telephone call is made from our side to confirm receipt of their complaint, within three working days. We always endeavour to dispatch a full and fair response within 10-14 days in order to give ourselves enough time to gather all the relevant information from suppliers, sub contractors and anyone else involved with the move.
“I have been appointed by Removal Group to be as fair and unbiased as possible. This is to make sure that all customer complaints are looked at fairly, ensuring that all complaints are resolved to mutual benefit.”
Ms Moffat’s four year service to Removal Group and a further 20 year experience in customer service positions shows Removal Group’s commitment to their customers. They only hire the most experienced individuals for their Customer Service team to ensure that their customers get the best service possible.
The complaints procedure at Removal Group was implemented three-and-a-half years ago, with the service constantly being upgraded depending on customers’ needs. In addition to this, they also have a procedure to make claims for damaged goods through their Enhanced Liability Cover, which makes it easier for the customer and Removal Group to process the claim and send it through to their insurance company for full compensation where applicable.

Turkey gateway between East and West

PR Log (Press Release) – Mar 10, 2010 – As a gateway between East and West, Turkey – and its present Capital of Culture, Istanbul – have been of great significance to travellers for centuries. But as the country’s intellectual centre basks in the world’s gaze, the greater prize of European Union membership remains illusive. BTN examines recent developments in Turkey, and assesses what the future holds.
Capital of Culture
Alongside Essen in Germany and Hungary’s Peç, Istanbul will spend 2010 celebrating as European Capital of Culture.
Already revered as both a historic centre and destination for cultural tourism, the city will hope to use the honour to boost its international profile over the coming months, showcasing the best it has to offer. Among the highlights will be the new Museum of Innocence. Based on a 2008 novel by Turkish Nobel Prize-winning author Orhan Pamuk, this poetic tribute to the city uses films, photos and other memorabilia to document culture and daily life in Istanbul from the Fifties to the present day.
For music fans Balkanist – the Balkan Music Festival – will explore the city’s role as a musical focus for the Balkan region in April, while the largest stadium concert in the city’s history will take place on 6 September when U2’s 360-degree 2010 tour rolls into town. On a smaller scale – but no less fascinating – the 99 Qur’ans exhibition will showcase the exquisite calligraphy of the Ottoman Empire, while the Archaeology Museum will stage an exhibition entitled Assyrians in Istanbul.
Outside of these headline events, however, the streets of the city will buzz with almost daily celebrations.But it is not just Istanbul celebrating at present. Presently outside the Eurozone, Turkey has seen a wave of European visitors arriving across the country over the past two years – all anxious to enjoy the low prices on offer in this premium mid-haul market. According to official statistics there were over 30 million visitors to Turkey last year, up from just ten million a decade earlier, reflecting the country’s rejuvenated lure to international visitors.
http://www.travelchacha.com/cities/aurangabad/
So whether it is the winding streets of capital Ankara, the ancient ruins of Ephesus or Troy, or the sun drenched resorts of the Turquoise Coast, Turkey’s tourism industry is set for a boom in 2010.
European Membership
But while the European Union may offer baubles – such as the title of European Capital of Culture – it has been markedly more reticent in offering Turkey access to the greatest prize of all – membership.
Although negotiations have been ongoing for decades – indeed Turkey was a founding member of the European Economic Community in 1959 and has since moved closer through the Ankara Agreement – disagreements over the future of Cyprus, the history of Armenia, political transparency, and the environment have all delayed accession.
However, the potential benefits for the tourism industry in the country are huge.
European visitors represent the biggest sector for Turkey, and their activities have a huge potential to support economic growth and employment in what is still a relatively developing country. There is also the advantage of stronger social ties between the EU and neighbouring Turkey, with ascension offering a very real opportunity to build a social, cultural and economic bridge between the Christian West and Muslim East.
Despite this, the process is likely to be long and arduous. While there is a gathering consensus in favour of Turkey’s eventual membership of the European Union – with France and Germany notably bucking the trend - European Commission president José Manuel Barroso has said the accession process could take at least until 2021.
World Travel Awards
Whatever the outcome of the ongoing negotiations with Brussels, Turkey is already fêted among members of the travel and tourism community, having being selected as host of the World Travel Awards (WTA) European Gala Ceremony later this year.
Taking place on 1 October, the city of Antalya – the tourism capital of Turkey – will host the elite of the Europe’s travel industry and world media, all of whom will be eager to discover who will walk away with the coveted “Oscars of the travel industry”.

SpiceJet plans $75-mn preferential issue

PR Log (Press Release) – Mar 08, 2010 – Delhi-based domestic air carrier SpiceJet plans to raise around $75 million by issuing preferential shares by September 2010.
The airline has appointed financial services firm Edelweiss, along with IDFC-SSKI Securities, as co-fund manager to find a suitable investor.
“We would like to go for preferential allotment of shares, but the actual financial instrument will be decided only after assessing the response from investors,” SpiceJet chief executive officer Sanjay Aggarwal said.
The low-cost airline needs money to start international operations and expand its fleet. SpiceJet is planning to fly to neighbouring countries such as Sri Lanka, Nepal and Maldives. It is also expanding its network in the domestic market by adding new stations. It currently operates with a fleet of about 20 Boeing 737 jets and commands a share of 12.4% in the domestic market.
The airline has already initiated talks with various investors, including private equity and privately-held business houses to raise the capital. The airline is looking to rope in a strategic investor after the exit of the Dubai-based investment firm, Istithmar. The Dubai firm sold almost its entire 13% stake in the airline last month for about Rs 160 crore.
While most of the full-service carriers are yet to recover from losses, SpiceJet posted a net profit of Rs 109 crore in the last quarter of the fiscal. “We hope to remain profitable this quarter also. The current year would be a better year for us compared with 2009,” Mr Aggarwal said on the sidelines of an international air show here organized by industry chamber FICCI and civil aviation ministry.
About SpiceJet Airlines
SpiceJet’s mission is to become India’s preferred low-cost airline, delivering the lowest air fares with the highest consumer value, to price sensitive consumers. SpiceJet hopes to fulfill everyone’s dream of flying!
With India's economic and business growth, the percentage of traveling population is burgeoning. More and more Indians are traveling for both business and pleasure and everyone needs to save both time and money. SpiceJet Airline's vision is to address that and ensure that flying is for everyone.

Rhys Davies achieves BRC re-accreditation

PR Log (Press Release) – Mar 03, 2010 – Rhys Davies Freight Logistics, the (Cardiff-based) national haulage, transport and freight logistics network, has achieved certification to the British Retail Consortium Global Standard for its storage and distribution services for ambient food and food ingredients, consumer products and packaging.  
The re-certification has been achieved by Rhys Davies’ depot in Birmingham and the company operates to the standard in all of its eight depots across the UK.  Rhys Davies first achieved the BRC standard in 2008. The standard is recognised worldwide as the global benchmark for product safety and integrity.
The audit was conducted by the Royal Society for the Promotion of Health (RSPH) and consisted of a thorough inspection of the company’s premises, quality systems and documented records, and verified compliance with HACCP Food Safety Management Systems.  The company qualified at the highest level of this award, meaning re-assessment will not be required until 2011.
Gary Phillips, Rhys Davies Commercial Manager, explained that to achieve the accreditation all the company’s health, safety and hygiene procedures had to be documented and adhered to throughout the operation.  “For our customers it means that they don’t have to go through a lengthy audit process themselves when using Rhys Davies,” he explained.  “It gives them the confidence that they are using a first-class organisation and makes everything much easier all round.”
Mark Richmond, the company’s Managing Director, said that he was delighted that his company had achieved this essential quality standard for the second year running.  He said that he considered it vitally important that his customers had an objective, independently verified benchmark by which to judge the quality and value of his company’s services. “It’s all very well to provide an excellent service,” he said, “but to have it confirmed by the BRC makes our quality plain for all to see.  I congratulate everyone at Rhys Davies for their continued hard work and dedication.”
Rhys Davies Freight Logistics is a national network employing 400 staff, operating 170 vehicles through eight operating centres throughout the UK.  It offers a uniquely tailored warehousing, distribution and handling service that extends to much more than just transport.
