Buford,
I flew with guy who left at the end of last month. The exit staff told him they were processing the resignations of close to 10% of the pilot body. I figure that means almost 400 pilots. You can question the accuracy of that statement, but he was from a country whose people are renowned for their integrity.
Goretex,
Every friend who has left has made the same statement - EK made me hate my job. That is quite remarkable, considering pilots have historically been kmown for loving their job.
Another thing they have all stated is that it took them somewhere between 4-6 months to realise what a good night's sleep is again. Of course, there is no fatigue at EK.
On the final countdown until letter submission day and the relief is growing.....
