It's not 100%, but I'm keeping close to 90%.
Also I'm not sure why you get age in the argument. Avion has captains of all ages and most of them are more than happy to keep this arrangement.
Maybe even if it's through an agency, we have more security than some flag carriers. Because while these so called airlines are trying to scrape the barrel with hilariously bad wages, there's a certain type of company that'll pick their slack, and it'll be happy to do it forever.
That type of company is Avion. I mean, it's not surprising that they doubled their fleet in 2 years, and are expecting another 15 aircraft in 2024, or is it?
Once again not defending avion in particular, I just find it amusing that people are bashing companies just for the sake of it.
I've witnessed more dangerous behaviours on flag carriers and low costs than I've ever witnessed in avion, at least until now.
That is the perfect meat for bottom feeder baltic scam companies like the ones mentioned above.
Good luck ... the worst of Heston and dumblynx, that couldnt find a job anywhere else is now in avion... captains fired because orbiting below MSA in Nigeria in IMC, or the famous capt that did a go around from 6ft in CDG, and few other professionals are all there now.
People is advised, those companies are just dangerous organizations, with an accident waiting to happen.
