Rumours around SQ that in the order of 200 SQ 777 type rated experienced pilots are going from SQ to EK. SQ are running f/os into the ground as it is, 98/100 hrs a month, trying to take ex Silk Air A320 pilots off the 777 back to the 320 for Tiger to find they are running short on the 777. Now Parc is out trying to find 320 drivers for Tiger.
Dont know what base they are going for, or what pay scale, rumour is they are just sick of the way SQ has been treating them.
The ill feeling all goes back years when the goverment could not believe the pilot body would and did strike.
Dont know if this is a start for EK to setup a base in SIN to allow it to expand pacific services.
