AL- ??? Numbers who have resigned ? Not many, I wud say. The footprints that you left will soon dissapear, overwhelmed by the ones coming the opposite way. Why other pilots do not resign ? Thats the problem with most of us who are not happy here,...trying to put others in their same basket. Like you, all of us here are "al-tempo". The next opportunity comes by ( with significant plus sign on it ! ), we will take ours. The fact remains, if you were a Capt, the guys junior to you will take his upgrade before you can say Bye, bye. Facts of life. All the best to you.
