The last very big mass exodus (as opposed to a small exodus) however was probably 88-91 or thereabouts so the corporate memory has probably faded somewhat.
I dunno about that. Nothing much useful was done to prevent the exodus then, and they'll probably do much the same this time.

We've already had the same questionnaires asking why pilots leave, and yet again the same answers were given - keep us flying, don't post us just when we've got our suitcases unpacked from the last move, don't promote us, keep us flying etc etc.

The ivory tower knows what will keep pilots in. However the indications so far are that yet again nothing more than lip service will be paid to solving the problem. Thinking outside the box probably isn't conducive to promotion.
