One Year facts from 1st april 2017 to 1st april 2018.
169 pilots joined and 231 left, bringing the total number from 4227 to 4164.
Attrition of 5,505 percent.
Im not aware of the total increase in fleet aircraft this year, but even with a slight increase this is quite alarming with most pilot already working to the absolute limit.
It would be very arrogant and unwise of management not to finally give in and increase TC & pay significantly. Its about time. A serious number of colleges is already in the pipeline for China.
