Meet Puke pakeha Pimp of the Day!
Just because your mom told you she would help with the clients, it doesn’t make it any better

I first heard about the “Taekwondo” pimp in July, but dismissed it as just another kiwi looking to make a buck on the back of the discredited Olympic games.
Now the International Olympic Committee has ordered the dysfunctional New Zealand Olympic Committee (NZOC) to threaten the puke pakeha pimp with legal action.
“Based on the Olympic values of excellence, friendship and respect, we would place your actions as totally inconsistent with these values,” the NZOC finally said in a letter.
“Your open solicitation of clients for your business while using the Olympics or Olympian connection must cease immediately.”
Puke pakeha Pimp Logan Campbell’s reacted by saying, if Air New Zealand can prostitute its employees to get more bums on seats, why can’t he make a few bucks by offering the female members of his family to willing clients, or words to that effect.
“At the end of the day, I feel like I’m not exploiting anyone because no one has to be here, we are not forcing anyone to be here. They are here of their own free will,” the pimp told NZ TV network.
NZOC had remained silent for nearly 4 months and had no intention of intervening either in Air NZ sky prostitution games, or the running of the “Olympic” pimp’s family brothel in Auckland.
Campbell, is by no means good at his other chosen sport, Taekwondo, either. He only finished in the last 16 in the featherweight division at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He then went on to establish a “high-class gentleman’s club” with help from his mother and other members of his family in Auckland earlier this year.
The build-up to his Beijing campaign had cost about $150,000, most of which came from his parents, and he hoped to earn $300,000 by 2011 to fund his bid for the 2012 Games. Campbell said his business and fundraising efforts were legitimate. ODT said.
That tells you volumes about the standards of morality in [poxy] New Zealand, doesn’t it!
The lowlife pimp has threatened to take legal action of his own, said NZ TV3. Though it’s not known who he will sue or for what.
Now YOU Know Why YOU Don’t Deserve Anyone Better Than Yohn Key [or Phil Goof]

Will You Be So Lucky Next Time?
Air New Zealand Flight NZ535, a Boeing 737, carrying 95 passengers, was forced into an emergency landing at Wellington airport today.
Air New Zealand Flight NZ535 may have looked like this after it caught fire. Source of the image.
The plane, flying from Auckland to Christchurch, reportedly ran into trouble “about 10 minutes” after takeoff, according to a passenger.
“He said jetstream coming over the engine on the aircraft’s right-hand side turned from white to grey, then black. The smell of burning rubber filled the cabin, causing panic among the passengers, he said.” NZPA reported.
The plane was diverted to Wellington airport for an emergency landing.
“It was pretty scary. A few people were panicking. . . not screaming, but just a bit fidgety, looking around at everyone,” the passenger told Radio New Zealand. “A few of us were wondering what was going on. I’m a bit religious, and I was definitely saying a few prayers on the way down, I’ll put it that way.”
A naked Air NZ spokeswoman said the plane had to be diverted to Wellington because smoke was detected.

The propeller blade spun off, struck the fuselage, tore thru the side, and fell to the ground
Hauraki Gulf commuters got the shock of their lives on Sunday when a propeller spun off their small plane and dropped to the ground.
The three-engine Britten-Norman Trilander, with 11 passengers and pilot Sean Deeney, had just taken off from Claris Airport on Great Barrier Island bound for Auckland when the incident happened.
The propeller blade spun off and struck the fuselage, “sending aluminium shards into the cabin, then fell to the ground.”
A passenger’s photographs show the damage done when a propeller came off New Zealand’s Great Barrier Airlines aircraft’s engine in mid-flight. Photo / Supplied
The pilot shut the engine down and returned to Claris Airport.
It was a “normal approach and landing” on two of the three engines and the plane taxied back to the terminal, he said. [Presumably, the third engine is really an accessory, and is not needed.]
Great Barrier Islands Airways operations manager Mike Maguire said passengers were not at risk but had been concerned.
How could passengers be at risk when something like a clumsy propeller spins off, hits the fuselage, tears through the side of the plane and then falls to the ground?
“Any time you are in flight and something goes wrong there is reason to be concerned,” he told the Dominion Post.
“He did an exceptional job getting the plane on to the ground,” Mr Maguire said.
Say, what caused the propeller to fall off?
He would not comment on what may have caused the accident.
Meanwhile, the hunt is on to find the propeller in swampy ground near Claris as the Traffic Accident Investigation Commission investigates what went wrong.
Happy propeller-hunting, folks! Would you like to take a few Easter eggs along to the swamp to save the hunters from boredom?
An Eye-Witness Account of a “six-minute nightmare …”
“The impact of the propeller, which came from the engine on the right wing, was terrifying.”
[At least one female passenger is known to have defecated in her pants.]
Passengers said the palne engine was wobbling during takeoff. [Clearly the pilot was used to that standard of maintenance.]
“It was like an explosion going off inside the plane,” a passenger told the Herald.
“The propeller came off and hit the side of the plane …
“Both propeller blades came off – the whole thing just destroyed itself. It just completely self-destructed.
“A door got ripped off and the side of the plane got smashed in – we all got covered in glass.
“There was a huge amount of debris that we were just covered in. There were chunks the size of golfballs that came back and hit you.”
“It was just lucky there was one seat spare – that was where it hit and pushed the side of the aircraft in.
“If someone had been sitting there they would have been injured quite severely.
“The guy I was sitting beside, he had the initiative to grab his camera out, but he was shaking so much he had some trouble taking pictures so I did it.”
“Two passengers needed medical treatment to remove debris from their eyes, and the man decided to catch a ferry back to Auckland rather than fly.” Herald reported.
“It appears to me there was a problem there with it or whether the problem had been created by the work carried out on who knows, but it just seems a coincidence that an engine they were working on explodes two days later.” A passenger said.

New Zealand Flu Paralyzes the Swines
WELCOME to all of you foreign visitors who are visiting New Zealand this winter. We can’t guarantee you a warm welcome because too many of our intellectually challenged staff are down with New Zealand flu. However we can guarantee you a bout of nasty New Zealand flu to last you throughout your stay here and beyond.
Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU for sharing our New Zealand flu viral mutations.
“New Zealand’s swine flu tally rose to 386 yesterday, though health officials say the real number is likely to be in the [tens of ] thousands, as regional authorities have stopped routine testing.” The Dominion Post Said.
Absence rates at Wellington region schools this week:
- Bishop Viard College 45 per cent
- Hutt Valley High School 30 per cent
- Upper Hutt College 30 per cent
- St Bernard’s College 28 per cent
- Wainuiomata High School 26 per cent
- Naenae College 26 per cent
- Samuel Marsden Collegiate School (Whitby) 23 per cent [Source: Dominion Post ]
Come to New Zealand. Sample our New Zealand flu viral mutations. Try one, or a combo, for yourself. The more the merrier.
P.s.
Don’t fly our flag-carrier because other disasters could beat the swine flu virus!

Flying Air New Zealand?
YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR **** MIND!
I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darkness at Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

The probability remains that the next major air disaster would occur as a result of an Air New Zealand Airbus crashing into the sea [with a certainty of 0.74]

Air New Zealand plane flew with cracked windshield
By MICHAEL FOX – Stuff.co.nz – Last updated 15:38 22/06/2009
An Air New Zealand plane en route from Auckland to Wellington was forced to turn back this morning after pilots noticed a crack in the cockpit windscreen.
A spokeswoman for the airline said the crack had appeared in the outer pane of the Captain’s side cockpit window.
“Pilots followed standard operating procedure and returned to Auckland as a precautionary measure,” she said.
“The aircraft landed without incident at Auckland, with passengers re-accommodated on an alternative aircraft.”
The plane is being inspected by engineers and is expected to return to service later today.

Two American tourists were tracked down by New Zealand police and forcefully quarantined
It’s believed that New Zealand’s South Island police tracked down two United States tourists who had traveled with flu-infected students from Los Angeles and forcefully quarantined them.
The two tourists, believed to be siblings, arrived on Air New Zealand flight NZ1 with Rangitoto College students, but refused to go into quarantine voluntarily as they had no flu symptoms whatever. However, they were then tracked down and arrested by the police and put into isolation.
The quarantine was initially a voluntary measure, but the authorities changed the rules, somewhat arbitrarily, as it is the norm in this country, and made it mandatory.
Health officials had instructed the police to track the tourists, who were found on the West Coast, and place them in isolation.

Why are so many New Zealanders sickened by swine flu virus, compared with only a few cases in the United States?
Did the virus really originate from Mexico?
Swine Flu Alert!
IF you are flying Air New Zealand, demand that the plane is fumigated immediately before takeoff!
While waiting for your plane to be fumigated, try solving this riddle:
How many ‘A’ are there in New Zealand’s ESR labs?
- Total number of New Zealanders visiting Mexico City since March 2009: Not very many, possibly a few hundred.
- Reported number of New Zealanders sickened by Swine flu virus: More than 20 percent of the visitors
- Total number of US citizens visiting Mexico City or coming into contact with people traveling from MC since March: Hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of citizens
- Total number of US citizens hit by Swine flu: Less than two dozens

Watch Our Lips: Read the *&#^*%* Report!
“PILOT ERROR” caused the Airbus A320 to crash into the Mediterranean Sea killing all aboard.
Five New Zealanders died in the crash off the coast of France in November. Photos / l’Independant, via nz herald.
France’s Bureau d’Enquetes et d’Analyses (BEA) said in a report published today in Paris that the “the plane performed a low speed test at too low an altitude.”
“The report shows a dramatic last minute struggle to save the plane, but it smashed into the sea at 263 knots or 487 kilometres per hour.” Media reported.
“Air New Zealand pilot Brian Horrell was sitting in a middle cockpit seat and an unnamed Air New Zealand engineer was on the flight deck.”
The report says the crew had “not received any specific training for this type of flight”.
The nincompoop Air New Zealand CEO, Rob Fyfe, is naturally upset with his airline’s abject failure to ensure safety. Mr Fyfe said, a “combination of failures” must have been behind the crash.
Yes, Mr Fyfe, you’re dead right, it was a combination of failures: Incompetence, inadequate training, corporate greed, cutting corners …
In America some pilots can land on water without engines!

Good News! The number of flights to and from New Zealand are shrinking!
Air NZ pilots face demotion, pay cut
Original Story by Tony Wall – Sunday Star Times – Sunday, 18 January 2009
Air New Zealand plane flown on second-generation biofuel. Original Photo: Guardian UK. Image may be subject to copyright.
More than 30 senior Air New Zealand pilots flying the airline’s largest jets face demotion to smaller aircraft and reduced pay as the company looks for ways to avoid large-scale redundancies in the difficult economic climate.
The Sunday Star-Times reported that 32 pilots currently flying 747s, 777s and 767s on long-haul routes will be “down-trained” [readers will excuse the pun!] That is to say, they will fly toy aircraft on domestic routes and have their pay and rank cut [It's not known whether their homes will be confiscated, too!]
Air New Zealand has about 850 jet pilots [every Tom, Dick and Harry who was previously a pig-farmer,] half of which fly long-haul routes.
Air New Zealand is also offering pilots alternative roles within the company, [shoot yourself in the head,] leave without pay, flexible flying arrangements and enhanced retirement packages [with this option you get to keep their wife, too!]
“According to a government career advice website, pilots who fly internationally earn up to $250,000.” [The pilots working for Colombian drug cartels don't make that much money!]
According to an Air New Zealand spokeswoman the “down-training” resulted from an 8% reduction in long-haul capacity due to the world economic downturn. [Is that all?]
Among the long-haul services Air New Zealand cut last year were flights to Japan and Hong Kong from New Zealand. [That's very reassuring, indeed!]
“We have not made any pilots redundant and remain committed to maintaining a workforce of highly skilled and trained professionals to ensure the airline is quickly able to adapt to changing market conditions,” she said. [They can always fly each other to the South of France, of course!]

Passengers ‘freak out’ as engine stops

Passengers on an Air New Zealand Link flight forced to make an emergency landing after smoke filled the cabin say they feared for their lives because staff delayed telling them what had happened.

Waikato Times reporter Matt Richens, who was on the 6pm flight NZ5015, said a large bang was heard near the right engine about 15 seconds after takeoff from Wellington airport en route to Christchurch. Immediately after, the cabin began filling with smoke coming from the air-conditioning units. Read more …

Reconditioned Air New Zealand Airbus A320 ‘dropped’ into the Sea
The greedy Air New Zealand boss and his equally unethical board of profiteers wanted more bang for their A320 buck
Two Germans and five New Zealanders were onboard the Air New Zealand Airbus A320 which crashed into the Mediterranean off Perpignan, southeastern France, earlier today. There were no survivors.
The Airline industry is NOT doing well. Airbus A320 seats about 150 passengers and its becoming increasingly difficult to fiind the passengers. The crashed Air New Zealand A320 was four years old [possibly five.] It had previously been leased to two other chartered airlines for a total of more than three years, and was being returned [after being "reconditioned"] to Air New Zealand.
The greedy Air New Zealand boss, Rob Fyfe, and his equally unethical board of profiteers wanted more bang for their A320 buck. It’s not known how much money Air New Zealand will receive from the insurers.

The information desk attendant at Perpignan Airport, said the plane dropped into the sea very quickly.
“The aircraft crashed direct … It’s not far from the airport. That’s why the aircraft was not very high in the sky … a lot of people saw the crash near the coast of Cannes.” She told reporters.
A French journalist said: “It’s not really clear on what happened … the plane was flying for one hour and a half and suddenly fell down to the sea … There was no explosion, it was flying [at] 300m and suddenly fell down into the sea, but no explosion.”
According to at least one aviation expert, the A320 is “one of the most reliable and safest” aircraft ever built. So why did it crash? Was it an own goal? Perhaps we’ll know one day!
The crash came on the anniversary of another deadly Air New Zealand disaster which killed 257 passengers and crew when the plane smashed into Mt Erebus while on a sightseeing flight (!) in Antarctica.

In Air New Zealand’s Mt Erebus disaster, both pilot error and Air New Zealand [they changed the flight plan without informing the crew] were at fault, according to separate inquires. High Court Judge Peter Mahon, head of the royal commission of inquiry, accused Air New Zealand of intentionally misleading the inquiry through an “orchestrated litany of lies.”
The establishment didn’t like the decision by their own trusted judge and had it overturned by another poodle judge, to avoid paying adequate compensation to the families of the victims.

Air New Zealand: The Flying Pigpens Flushed to a New Low
NZ Airline promoting changes to its domestic flight check-in process wants to pay people $1000 each to have their heads shaved and tattooed with advertising. Source Yahoo. Image may be subject to copyright.
The “pig farmers” at Air New Zealand, the same people who had their plane with all of its passengers fumigated like a herd of diseased sheep in April, are now offering desperate New Zealanders NZ$1,000 (about $500), to have their heads shaved and tattoo with advertising.
“How better to tell our customers … than through messaging they can read while they’re standing in a queue?” Air New Zealand ’s marketing manager Steve Bayliss said.
“We’re launching a promotion to find guys and girls who want to put their hands up to be `cranial billboards’ … people who are willing to give us the back of their heads for two weeks.”
The desperate morons who stand out among the crowd would be selected, shaved on the spot and tattooed on the back of their heads.
Mr Bayliss said check-in queues had become a fact of life: “You end up staring at the back of people’s heads, waiting for the line to move”. (Source)
