CX will not make the same mistake as they did with the 49'ers. It was a massive
PR defeat for the company worldwide which sadly had deadly consequences for 3 of our colleagues. Whilst you could argue CX Management does'nt learn from it's mistakes. That is one mistake they will never repeat. SAS is grounding flights due lack of crew. Norwegian has just added a sign on bonus for all type rated pilots. Jet2 will offer a type rating for free and BA are about to embark on their most ambitious recruiting drive in a decade. China needs 100,000 new pilots in the next 5 years and Europe 250,000 in the next 20. But only CX knows this is all wrong. We actually need less well paid pilots, kids to fill seats and careers lasting 5 years at best. Everyone else has got it wrong.
PS Sorry for the spelling mistakes ( it's obviously catching ).
