dear Grofaz (grosster feld...;aller zeiten???...)they (EAT) are very desperate for captains indeed ...6 months contract (4 months training ...typerating+ 2 months flying )...then 90% of the guys go (voluntarily)...eat has trouble keeping their troops ...up untill two years ago, people tended to stay ...the 8on/6 off roster (well, in fact it's a 9/5 ...but eat likes to call it an 8/6) was appreciated ...but remember, tax in Belgium is about 55 to 60% ...so crews opted for a more taxfriendly environment (even the belgians)...they fled!
