In the short time I have been a member of this board, I have swung from neutral to in favour of the the companies sacking of the pilots who are not performing their duties up to the standards expected of them.
The arrogance of Kaptin M is a classic case of the "I KNOW BEST" mentality despite the rest of the participants pointing out very good reasons with patient explanations.
This "I KNOW BEST" attitude has landed 52 pilots in hot water, I feel the only way they will fly CX again is as a passenger on their journey home.
Putting this into perspective:
Hong Kong is paying a huge price for the sake of 1200 pilots staff? Can't the AOA see how unfair it is to effect so many lives for this small number?
There are many who will suffer, even amoungst the pilots! Wives, kids etc.
Very sad indeed
