Upgrades suspended in QR ?

Dear Sirs,

seems like QR has suspended the command interviews.
Guys who are coming up did not start the pre-Interview scenario (assessment flights, pre-command course ) and the reason for that seems that the commands are put on a halt due to F/O shortage on the 330 and 320 fleet. Many flights already leaving with 2 captains in the seats.
Guys on the right hand seat are looking for greener pastures and a lot of guys are willing to leave for faster command somewhere in asia.

So after stopping right to left 330 they created another bottleneck. Wonder how they are going to respond.Management already thought about getting guys with no experience in the right hand seat and flying them as second officers but with "normal line captains".

Interesting how QR with their new management are going to respond to this development in the times after L.M. and A.J.

Regards

G.L.
