Ah yes I have been following the drama over there since the beginning, an astonishing collection of creatures in both groups it seems... I was one of the cadet courses that got binned from Cathay in 2012 and decided not to join EK in 2016 due to a family illness... Looks like I'd have been out of job right now if I'd ended up at either! Still fancy a stint flying LH in the ME at some point as I have indicated on here before, but I'll be waiting a few years until I have enough cash in the bank that I only have to stay as long as I like, and not be too put out when I'm asked to leave.
