I've been asked to provide attested documents to a certain company in the middle east, to apply for my visa, where they are requesting me for my licence to be attested. From what I can see on the 'Foreign and Commonwealth Office' website, they do not attest licences. Has anybody done this before? If so, I'd appreciate some wisdom about the process of getting this done.

Thank you,

Glad they all got out OK, is there some underlying problem with the Super Pumas, or is it just a law of averages, when you get as many flights per pay as these fly, statistically, you are going to have a few incidents. ]]> Helicopters Only Fazerset2stun http://www.airmech.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=11840 LAE Pos LHR http://www.airmech.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=11839&goto=newpost Thu, 10 May 2012 20:27:46 GMT A Guy i work with has today been offered a BA, LAE Pos at LHR he would like some more info regarding shift,s and pay and any other info regarding the...

Monarch Airlines to establish bmibaby base
Quote:
UK scheduled leisure airline Monarch Airlines (ZB) will set up a base at the East Midlands Airport (EMA), hub of struggling low-cost carrier bmibaby, which new owner International Airlines Group has said it may close if no buyer is found by Sept. 10 (ATW Daily News, May 7).

A ZB spokeswoman said Friday the airline was still deliberating on the type and number of aircraft to be based at EMA, which will serve Mediterranean holiday destinations, including Malaga, Alicante and Palma (Spain), as well as Faro (Portugal).

The EMA base will be operational by late summer; details on aircraft and flight frequencies will be announced in the next two weeks, she said.

ZB also plans to increase frequencies at Birmingham Airport (BHX) to Malaga, Alicante, Palma and Rome, as well as introducing a new service to Barcelona.

In a thinly veiled reference to bmibaby’s closure, ZB MD Kevin George said: “In light of recent industry changes, opportunities have opened up in the market. It has become clear that the Midlands will be under-served as a region in the future.”
