  • Air Canada worker

    Air Canada sold its money loser maintanence division called A.C.T.S. to KKR in 2007.
    A.C.T.S. changed its name into Aveos.
    From 2007 till 2009, A.C.T.S. (AVEOS) cheats lost of
    money from its main customer “Air Canada”. Such as
    charge back expensive parts to Air Canada . Those parts were belonged to Air Canada from the past,they
    were kept in different areas (shops) .
    Cheating labour charge: Old Units were stored in warehouse that never being required. By making hundreds of work orders to scrape those units,
    Air Canada paid for thousands of labour hours but
    got nothing back.
    Avoes hired lot of management people from NORTEL
    in the past. They spent money like water,like changing
    software system to run whole operation……It ended up
    did not work at all but got back to the same old system.
    I believe Air Canada,Avoes,KKR shall all bankrupt soon!!!
