This guy is a lunatic if he thinks that he has 45.000 pilots to choose from. If their requirements are 787 TR then I can bet you that he doesn't have more than 2000 applications which most of are just guys checking what's on the table. If you include 777 rated guys that number is much higher but again not all are willing to live in Riyhad especially those that built nice seniority with their carriers (pension salary etc). If you make 20k plus pension have family well settled why on earth would you like to go there? For the sake of 5k extra?
