Do you really think that the dutch pilots at EZY would like to go to the arrogant KLM where they have to work for at least 2-5 years as an releave pilot?
Frankly I don't care what the dutch EZY pilots want. I do know that you have no idea what you're talking about...
1) It is by no means a given that you start off as a relief- pilot. In fact, chances are that you'll start off as a co-pilot FK50/B737.
2) You'll find that the culture within KLM has changed dramatically within the past 15 years. Lots of new-hires are "free-market" (i.e. non_ KLM flightschool grads). It is no longer required to play golf on layovers...
3) As a KLM pilot I'm appalled at the deal KLM UK pilots were handed. It is simply not the way you treat people. Then again, I'm not a manager and never will be. Having said that, KLM UK pilots are but a small group within the pilot-body and there were other considerations, I'm sure. You'll always get the short end of the stick if you're in the minority. It's called "democracy"
We're not all bad you know...
Try to make some informed statements next time.
