So why don't you move to China then since you love them and hate us so much? How did I get in? WE own this land. EVERY OTHER PERSON that came here did so without our permission. "Cursed tribe of Esau"? Wouldn't that be people that look just like you= YOU&YOUR KIND? I always knew you had to be like one of those Nation of Islam crazies.

Anyway, you still didn't answer my question: WHEN ARE YOU RETURNING TO AFRICA IF YOU HATE US SO MUCH?

Lmao... Have you EVER heard a slave owning a land? Even the American Indians who have tribal settlements still have their lands encroached on, then it's one bozo forming yankee that owns lands... ROTFLMAO. Other Africans and Nigerians including myself are stomping on your head even on your land... You got a problem, do something.

I will return to Africa, Nigeria precisely i.e. after you have found the map or rather, the location to your root. Till then, a slave and freeborn have nothing in common.

Btw, your attempt to paint me as hating the U.S. is DOA, can't and won't work. This is between you and I, and if you can't stand the heat, get the hell out of the kitchen. I made comments that were truthful, if you believe it's incorrect, counter my claim rather than making yourself look so pathetic with the "why you hate us so much"... Bittttcch please.

ISpiksDaTroof:


The bolded shows how unintelligent you truly are.

I asked a simple question: WHEN ARE YOU GOING BACK TO YOUR HOME?

Lmao... An attorney just said the "bolded"...Haha. Dude, just accept that you're a cretinious fvcktard, you're my bitttccch. How many times do I have to tell you that a slave and freeborn don't have anything in common? I've gone back to my home, at least more than once, question is: do you have a home to begin with let alone going back to it? I still put it to you that you're cretinious fvcktard.

vowsng:


baba ask no such questions, when you were campaigning and shouting sai baba even when it was clear that the man had no good economic policy/ propaganda, did you care to listen, nigerians have taught all of us a new way to support, just by sentiment. trump is our president, long live united states of nigeria!!!

I NEVER campaigned for Buhari, NEVER. I always thought he was a wrong choice for the people. I'd still pick GEJ over him except IF there was a better candidate in lieu of Buhari. As a matter of fact, IF Fashola was picked, he would have been a better contender. As for Buhari, I did not support his candidacy. Trump can never be our president, I'll go with a lesser evil. Nothing further.

"If America spent money on education, her people will be advanced."

Because you can name one country in your whole continent thats not at least 2000 years behind us in terms of development? At least we've got loans to give out to our students what do you have to give yours? Before you snuck in here (probably through Mexico), did you ever imagine that a Government could finance your education or that it would be uninterrupted without teacher strikes and student riots occurring every two weeks?

If America is so bad why don't you then go back to Africa?

At times I wonder how we became so nice that we allowed all manners of ill-bred and ungrateful things come into this country only for them to turn around and speak bad of us.

Name one country that's not 2000 years behind you? Are you really this clueless or you're forming clueless... Which one is it? You think your shitt hole of America is the shitt right? Lmao.... What can I say, continue living in the past, "old glory", while the likes of China kicks your country's ass... Lol

Dude I put it to you that you're a slave, so please shut the fvck up when real people are talking. Lmao, at least I have "Africa" and Nigeria to go back to. How about you, are you the cursed tribe of Esau who doesn't know his root? Look at this fifth hand citizen forming "yankee citizen"... lmao. You're a shame and disgrace to whatever you stand for. If I were you, I wouldn't meddle into Nigerian or African affairs, because a lost tribe has nothing in common with a free one... At least I snuck in thru Mexico, how about you, how did you get in? Don't make me go all in.

And oh, btw, I don't hate America, but for the simple purpose of exchanging words with you, I will rub your shitt right on your face... Now fvck off but if you want more, you can ask for more.

babakb:
common manny I know a little abt america's history, we all saw black president coming, in fact it almost happened in the past with martin luther king, u and I kno that no woman is fit enough to rule america, just watch as the drama unfolds.

Let's agree to disagree

ISpiksDaTroof:


You're back, Mr.Know-it-all. When I get on your case now, Young Homosex*ual, you'll start screaming deceitfully that I attacked first. Why are you always following me around?

By the way, when are you returning to Africa? Your people are in dire need of your unintelligence.

Look at this retarded bunkum ... Yes I am back and I will definitely give you the fire you're looking for. Coming from a slave who doesn't know how when to use "unintelligence", so much for an "attorney"... Imagine this mofo looking for his root back home is telling a pure naija bred citizen when he's returning home... A retarded fvcktard like you should know when to bow out. You shouldn't be on NL, you're not welcome here. Me, following you around?... Lmao, lele... When they say human should raise their hands, "second hand" wants to raise his as well... Taa get out.

caracas:

She will never rule america.
No offence to her but She doesnt hav What it takes to rule the no 1 country in the world.
Thats exactly how we warned those danfodios n afonjas about buhari but they refused to Listen,now See the Situation we 've found our selves in .
But i trust americans they are wiser.
Go Trump Go.

Really? Between her and Trump, who has a better resume when it comes to public service, diplomacy, foreign relations, policy formulation, etc? You're right, Americans are wiser now... They know who will plunge America into third world war with a push of a nuclear missile over something that can be resolved diplomatically. Trust and believe, Americans aren't financially and mentally ready for such.

babakb:
America the hypocrites, a woman will never rule america, they will only push other nations to allow women to rule dem so DAT they would be vulnerable to america. As the election is drawing near they want to give us a genuine reason for Clinton,s failure but we kno their antics, a woman will never rule america.

Just like it was unbelievable when a black man won the presidency over an army war veteran. Stay there and continue o, it will happen right in your eyes.

kinibigdeal:
Do you want me to enlighten you about Mugabe? I can take the painstaking pill to do that

What part do you want to enlighten me on ? That he's slept a few times in public meetings or that he has fallen? Which of them?

You're more than welcome to pick either or both to enlighten me on; I don't have a problem with it.

CFCman:

Don't you know that he has "a very good brain" and "knows more about ISIS than the Generals?
Relax, he will rely on very smart people to make America great again.

Like seriously, these people are annoying

kinibigdeal:
I dont read Garbages written by Obama led media. That same Obama's google should have told you more about Mugabe and western countries. He as no reasons to travel to any Gayish western countries

Lmao... So Google is the writer/publisher of these articles? Even when other western countries are "gayish", so are Asians, African countries as well? I swear you Trump supporters, like Trump, yall think out of your arseeee...

MICHEALADEX:


See what you don't know is more that which you know

America is not fighting corruption like Nigeria neither are they fighting internal terrorism

American issues are purely more of foreign policy that will keep them about the countries like China north Korea and handful of others...america needs a radical president like bush and not the Clinton or the Obama...wake up and be constructive.

Am waiting for you

You're right about what I don't know is more than what I know; however, I do know about one thing: the devil I know is better than the angel I don't know.

America makes it seem like terror is the center point for it's greatness or rather, Trump makes it seem that way. The truth is that, America's war on terror is not as great as other issues plaguing it. It's one thing that America is striving to be the world police (by fire and thunder) and it's another thing that these are clearly their issues and it directly affects them. America's issues are NOT more of foreign policies, thanks to the media for hyping it like it seem, America's main issues are purely domestic.

Education:

If America spent money on education, her people will be advanced. Wonder where STEM is heading to? Take a statistic of people holding STEM jobs in America? Where do you think most of these jobs are heading?

How can you be great again when more than 50% of elementary school students fail math and reading exercises? How do you think they will succeed?

How do you plan on being great when millions of students graduating out of college have a minimum of $20k in student loan debt ballooning at more than 4% annual interest rate?

How do you plan on being great when the educational system have suffered collapse: budget cuts, disenfranchising a certain group of people in state/federal grants, etc.

Security & Violence:

We talk so much about foreign policy in terms of security, but domestically, racism, police brutality, racial profiling and violence and much more far exceeds the death toll suffered by international war on terror.

How do you want to make America great again when a certain group of people are cherry picked for violence

How do you want to make America great again where hate and racist comments seem to thrive, among other vile things, it's celebrated.

How do you want to make America great again when freedom of worship, speech and to vote (thanks to a recent SCOTUS decision back in 2013) is being threatened?

I don't want to derail this thread, but I can go as far as into our judicial system, legislature and it's corrupt activities, the economy, and many more aspects. America's economy bordering on things like foreign trade, fiscal policies, job growth & unemployment, taxes, immigration, wages, poverty, etc has been the center of debate in Congress for the past few years or so, and you think foreign policy is America's problem.

So if you honestly believe foreign policy is America's biggest problems, it's either you don't live in the U.S. OR you simply are not too familiar with America's real problem. I am NOT undermining the threats from foreign sources, but you won't be successful in a foreign fight if your own house isn't kept in order. Yes, America needs a radical president but NOT at the expense of more serious issues. As a president, there's a limit to how much you can involve the U.S. in a foreign conflict, so again, foreign policy as important as it is, is the not a top three item on America's list.

Like I've said before, what will bring America down to it's very knees are not foreign nations like North Korea, China or Russia but it's own people. The signs are everywhere, the American people have had enough of it's leaders.

I forgot, were you in the U.S. back in 2013 when the govt shutdown for 20 days due to Congress NOT passing the budget? Please go and read the ripple effect of such action and what it's still causing 3 years later. When you have someone like Trump saying he would allow the U.S. default on their loans so that he can renegotiate the terms, considering the huge economic loss and financial damage, does that sound like someone who has any clue on American economy? That 20 days shutdown was a greater threat than Russia and China put together.

Onopa:


She killed Ghadafi

Boy take several seats please... _/ _/ _/ _/ _/

I have asked few Trump supporter to layout Trump's agenda on the economy. In fact, let's just start here, NONE has been able to state a sound economic plan and how he intends to achieve it EVEN IF it's not achievable.

MICHEALADEX:


Spit it out...what do you know

Spit what out? You mean the comparison?


1. Buhari chanted for "CHANGE" just like Trump is chanting "America will be great again" yet no economic plan to back it up
2. Buhari thinks with his (I don't even know what to call him just to respect him) just like Trump thinks with is arsxxxx
3. Buhari thinks every solution should be dealt with militarily just like Trump thinks, even the so-called 88 generals signed the letter as their ideology. Case in point, when he made the reference of using stockpile nuclear missiles. Only an unstable president would respond with nuclear weapons for something than can be resolved diplomatically.
4. Buhari like Trump lack common diplomatic skills to make everyone work together
5. Buhari like Trump have divisive tendencies (I don't need to expand on this)

And the list is endless
In fact, Nigeria would be child's play compared to what I foresee for America

Onopa:


She is also a war criminal

Because an unknown NL Trump supporter said so.. Pleaseeee

MICHEALADEX:
I guess that's her clone and her handlers...please make your research on clones and handlers and your be shock to know that there are about six Obama appearing in public. #fact

I can see that you've been watching too many American movies: "The Devil's Double" about Saddam Hussein's double. Good movie though but I don't think it's applicable to Clinton or Obama.

Onopa:


Because she is probably the most corrupt politician in US history

And Trump isn't? A lot of Trump supporters are just annoying, if you think Clinton is anymore corrupt than Trump is, then I can only pity you.

If Americans ever vote Trump as the next POTUS, what is going on in Nigeria would be a child's play in comparison to the U.S., that's an assurance.

flokii:
Thought they said over 30 ex Generals already endorsed Trump..

Hillary will try but we knw who d next U.S president is

The American people will decide who becomes their next president.

kinibigdeal:
Mugabe is 98 and still active. So tell me something else

And he has fallen countless times, Google is your friend.

Also, Mugabe hasn't traveled 1/3 as Clinton has in several decades, even when he does, it's either he's sleeping or falling.

Keneking:
Trump must win this election.

Trump must NOT win this election. Unfortunately, out of the two devils, I'll still pick Clinton.

Badgers14:


You didn't sound like a lawyer.... Can't even make a logical argument.... did you attend your law school in Mozambique I am a lawyer myself(Uchicago)

Bro don't waste your time with this dude.

CFCman:

Even if the fund would only be given as loans to the airlines at single-digit interest rates?

Even if it's 0%, I'm still against it. As much as aviation remains a protected market, and I mean an industry with govt interest, I still believe that govt involvement should be limited which includes giving subsidized loans.

CFCman:

Yes, you once told me you two went to the same school. My bros is still with Boeing at Seattle.

Wow, how time flies... That's wasup. I remember back in those days when these companies came around. Good to hear that he's doing alright.

CFCman:
@ Boeing777Pilot; manny4life

The Nigerian government can set up it's proposed Aviation Development Bank with a start-up capital of N250 - N300 billion?

I strongly advise against this model simply because we have an attitude of waste and incompetence, more importantly, we don't have a sound aviation background for the govt to take on such huge expense. It's certainly not worth it.

Boeing777pilot:


Unless you are Emirates, Qatar or Etihad, most airlines are better off leasing aircraft.

Google Gecas and thank me later.

GE still remains one of the largest leasing corporations in the world. They buy in bulk and that further proves my point. This is why I said "scenarios". It would be a bad advice to for any entrant to purchase airplanes out rightly. When I mean scenarios, you should have asked first what I meant.

CFCman:

Good luck with your paper! Is it for school purposes?

My elder bro said it's generally more prudent for an airline to lease aircraft than to buy cos you'd have more red-tape wahala if you outrightly own an aircraft.

I wouldn't say paper per say, but it's a phase of a lengthy project.

Financially prudent in the short term, YES, but in the long run... It isn't. That's why I said given the scenarios. There are many factors to consider, I mean, we're purchasing the airplanes "cash only". I still remember your bro btw, you know he and I went to ERAU together.

CFCman:

I believe even Emirates leases most of their aircraft

That's true... A lot of airline operators lease most of their fleet. I just started a paper: lease vs purchase. Depending on the scenario, like I said before, purchase is often better than leasing the aircraft. Again, it all depends on what scenario you're talking about.

klexycole:


I really need your advice here... What do you advice I do?

It all starts with

a. What type of airline: the bigger the size, the greater the complexity. For instance there are small, regional, national, and international carriers. I assume you're talking about a small/regional carrier. If in the U.S., commercial scheduled airlines regardless of the size fall under Part 121 carrier.

b. After deciding the size, ask yourself: do I have funding? Each size has it's own requirement, and more stringent as it goes higher. Ideally you want to fund up to 25% of the startup amount.

c. Consult with Aviation experts in their different areas of specialty such as law, credit & finance, insurance and risk management, regulatory compliance, etc. Ask as MANY questions as you can. In fact, go prepared with your questions. More reasons why you should carryout your independent research before meeting with an expert.

d. Begin the process: start with a well written business plan. Use a business consultant to write this plan. A well constructed and researched business plan written by a field expert can cost up to $25k but it's well worth it. It would answer ALL the questions such as

I. Financial research and projections
II. Operational strategy
III. Investment and funding requirements
IV. Regulatory compliance questions and answers

In fact, these plans are so detailed that they are termed "investor ready".

e. Stay focused an committed. Yes you would encounter serious obstacles. Many people will tell you NO, only a handful will tell you yes. Improve your business skills. Like I've been told before, you're not selling the plan (that's irrelevant to the investor because he/she has seen a million type of your plan), what you're selling is yourself. The confidence that you're not drain their funds.

And the rest is, if successful, an aviation consultant will work side-by-side with you all the way to start of operations. Depending on the type of airline, immediate access to funds, regulatory red tapes, etc, a small airline can takeoff within 18 months or less.

klexycole:


Oh good! I would checkout the Dash 8 Q-400 aircraft then. I love aircrafts and I really wanna have a airline.

Nothing is impossible, but do you have funding? Starting an airline is not easy, lots of legwork and paperwork involved. The airplanes are the least item on your startup checklist.

revolt:
you southerners are just so naive. you haven't still opened your eyes to the grand plan, kill all southern businesses by tightening the economy and help northern businesses kick off. afterall 10% of our scarce forex was given to dangote, azman will also get forex. by the tym our president is done bulk of the sectors will be controlled by northern businesses.. Tsa was a ploy to kill southern dominated banking sector, not minding the consequences.

Bro I am not naive, I see what's going on. I was only curious how the airline was gonna source the $$$ to finance his operational expenses quoted in $$$$.
