CLC
You are correct in saying that most in your category five no longer give a Friar Tuck about the company BUT, as a group, they are too fed up to feel handcuffed the way they used to.
In the current market there is plenty of contract flying out there with basing opportunities and this will get even the old and the tired on their horses. Expect a swathe of resignations in the first half of 2018 from 10-15 year captains, who are all highly sought after by our friends north of Lowu and south of the Yalu.
Even a three-year contract with one of these carriers provides more security than we currently have and to be frank, their management could not possibly be any worse.
in 2018 RH/AT are going to get mightily sick of saying "Don't let the door hit you in the arse on the way out".
