Your comments about RC are unfounded, and un-true.The fairest man I have ever met. Don't you think he may be between a 'rock and a hard place'. He has been in GF for nearly 30 yrs, it certainly is not in his interest to see it collapse.Capt's leave for all sorts of reasons and 767 fleet ( GF/GT ), is no exception, but to blame it on him is wrong. Fact is, Capt's are leaving, and F/O's too, due many factors, but certainly not his fault. Despite the route structure that we have on 767, which is awful for many of us, compared to 330/340 crew, and they are not entirely happy either, don't you perhaps think, that if GF made it worth-while to stay, then perhaps people would??? , not just flight deck.It must cost GF a fortune to train pilots,and cabin crew, and then have them leave after a year or so. Better to try and keep them if they fit the bill. Make terms and conditions better, even more-so, than the competition, and then we'll see who want's to leave, despite the routes. The ones that have left, and are leaving, are doing so for their own reasons, but the fact remains, they must be replaced, otherwise the whole 767 operation grinds to a halt. That can't be allowed to happen. Is it no wonder that DEC's, HAVE to be employed. Certainly no fault of RC.
