2 748 FO's have recently left Emerald for pastures new, along with 2 more and 4 Capt's have just left the fleet to go to the ATP. The 748 fleet remains at 14 aircraft and is desperately undercrewed, the situation made worse with the migration to the ATP. Crews have so many roster changes, they don't know whether they are coming or going and are constantly being requested to work days off.
Despite all this there seems to be a reluctance to take on more crew, when the programme completely falls down then something may get done about recruitment.
