Xindamail..
I should think the locals would be relieved having anxiety, pain and distress removed by the arrivals of expats.
Most of the time the expats are brought in because of rapid expansion, but this is the 1st time expats are brought in due to loss of manpower.
The locals have been worked hard and are reaching their limits so I think they would not mind the arrival of fellow pilots to give them some time off.
Regards.
