My 2 cents on SAA crew needs.
SAA will never run out of local pilots as the other airlines in SA will have crew that will just be to happy to join,even if it's for one reason only(no....not more money) and that's to get a rating on something that they might feel they need to get out of SA,because ain't that what the average pilot at SAA is busy with.........to get a backdoor open?? A very sad,but real fact at the moment.
Also now that the newbees suppose to go straight onto the domestic fleets(A319 or B738)the rating and experience comes from day one. This is just the way I see it, and of course we all got different ideas on the current situation at SAA and SA.Sorry drifting of the topic''100 joining''.........heard that one also a number of times at SAA before.Well I hope there is truth in it this time round.
