The editor of this site has received complaints from a couple of staff working at the Fly 540 owned airline, Fly Sax.
The employees say that they have not been paid for the past four months.
Others say that they received termination letters without due process.
Trouble At Fly Sax/540
We’ve previously highlighted that Fly Sax is run like a dilapidated matatu where spare parts and servicing of planes is a toll order.
We showcased how Fly 540/Sax likes taking short cuts in terms of servicing their aircrafts, read below.
Fly 540 And How It’s Mismanagement Has Seen Disaster Like The Recent FLY SAX Crash
This was revealed after a Fly Sax light aircraft that flew the Kitale – Nairobi route hit a hill-side at at Njambini area, Aberdare ranges killing all 10 people on board.
The government has never formed a commission of inquiry to investigate the air accident that dented credibility and safety of Kenya’s airspace.
White Supremacists like Don Smith, the CEO of Fly 540 doesn’t care about some Africans dying.
He doesn’t count the human cost.
He doesn’t care that those people who died were breadwinners, uncles, fathers, aunts.
Now his ideology has made him fire staff without notice and to delay their salaries for three months.
Those who were fired have also not received their dues.
We received the following information:
Staff one
