We'll see how many KA guys volunteer their 3 weeks away. During SARS it was less that 25%. In CX it was nearly 99%.
Are you serious? CX pilots didn't even support their own 49'ers but rather ducked for cover lest they be next. Seriously weak and now they wonder why CX is such a crappy job.
I remember once being asked at the Kai Tax aviation club bar why KA pilots had pleats in the front of their uniform pants, "its because they need the room" was the obvious answer.
