Thats been tried before as well
dunerider, and it got nowhere.
However, will be traveling extensively shortly, so may have to give this site a miss for a short while...expect you'll be pleased.
New guys to the middle east are learning a bitter lesson...all is not what it appears to be, from afar.
Will EK management see the 'error of their ways', as some here would indicate the problem is now?
Not very likely, if past history from that part of the world is any indication.
Some would say that...'we have great depth of experience with our pilots, no need to hire Commanders from outside.
Great depth allright...of deep doggie do-do.
Other middle east airlines have been at the game a lot longer, and quite frankly, have paid more...sometimes a
lot more salary and benefits, than EK does now.
EK apparently pays TCN wages, and really nothing more.
Meanwhile, the living costs just keep going up, likewise with school fees.
No wonder management is having difficulty in finding DE guys...but hey, put the salary up a bit...and folks will start to trickle in, but certainly no flood.
The flood was the guys that believed the so called BS in the first place.
Suckers...
