My comments are from the SIA Cargo side of the fence. And, yes, the latest resignation was just a few days ago. Off to fly B777 in the sand pit.
'Crew Shortage' in the remarks column of our April rosters at a not particularly busy time of the year and a requirement to recruit 30 Captains asap is a fair indication of what declining Terms, Conditions and Corporate attitude has done to the SIA Cargo pilot workforce. The company really do need to address this urgently.
We have also lowered the selection bar in an attempt to attract quantity rather than quality and are now interviewing guys (and offering them DECs) who did not previously even meet the criteria to apply.
