Hook ,
you lot are soooo predictable.OOO you got me . What a plonker. That sort of standard predictable retort is indictative of the self obssesed nature of many in the pit.
DEC jobs are ten a penny. EK isnt worth it for me amongst other reasons.. So Im not there , but you believe what you want.
Now Noone said that europe was easier.I operate in both. I insinuated as has another chap on another forum that it is possibly easier to aquire the necesary qualifications and parker time in juristictions of dubious integrety. Juristictions that EK have poached from. But they are ICAO so thats alright then.
Now combine that with a desperation for pilots and easing of standards and hours and you very soon have the situatiuon where a chap may hypothetically rise to dizzying heights where otherwise he may not be suitable. It would appear that such factors are manifesting themselves at EK ( and others, but this is about ek). I have first hand knowledge of such meteoric sucess at ek. Good luck to you all , but I wont be buying any more eeeek tickets again( amongst others).
Now I must dash and fire up my microsoft simulator.
