Sounds more like the number of warning letters he wants to be sent out? Seriously though, the above figure came from the following article, which appears to be rather flexible with the truth!

The National - Emirates brings back 100 furloughed pilots per month as planes now 70 per cent full

BTW - great news on the further recall of 380 pilots!

Ditto about the comment regarding engineers made by Pif Paf. The chaps working in DWC to get the 380s ready again are working outdoors 24/7 in the horrendous dust and heat, since there is no hangar space available. Their workload has increased exponentially with around 30% less engineers available.
