Isn’t this only to fix a problem within QLink? I didn’t know they had SO’s.
You can’t tell me that there hasn’t been calls for expressions of interest internally that have gone unanswered (it’s more money, which is the problem that you claim) before they’ve gone down this road? I imagine flight ops would have been involved at some point, why haven’t they intervened if the problem is so obviously about money? And then what do you do with the excess of pilots once the mass training backlog has cleared? Just think, if they were contract pilots, you could get rid of them and then replace them with local labour!
