No company is perfect and any person who wishes it upon the KLM pilots to be treated the way the Air Uk guys were, well, shame on you is all I can say. Some comments posted here really should be taken with a pinch of salt! As for joining the company and having to be a relief pilot for 5 years, would normally be the case I think but direct entry Captains are being recruited right now so things do change!
Indeed Ennie, direct entry captains are being recruited. The irony is that KLCuk F50 captains were not eligible to apply for a job that they were already doing................
