I think the SM is beginning to lose his "marbles"

Recently he said we Pilots wanted First Class seats reserved for in flight rest when on a long double crew flight like SIN/LHR when in fact it has always been Business Class.

Now he suggests in Low Cost Airlines the Pilots clean the aircraft!! What an absolute load of horses**t

What he did not say was that in Easyjet/Ryanair their Pilots earn MORE than SQ Pilots!!

His deliberate disinformation is to make the general Singapore Joe Public think we are all spoilt and overpaid .

Never before have I witnessed such an onslaught of Government attacks on an Airline that depends to a large extent on an ex-pat Pilot workforce. How does he expect to recruit yet alone retain Pilots if SQ do not pay the "Market Rate"?????
