Condolence for who had to subject oneself for the abusive training in KAL. But it isn't anything new. Someone said it before here on PPRuNe... it's like winning the lottery in KAL. Some have great experience in OE and some have it really bad.
Why pay for your own Capt. B777 or A330 type to work? (Could it be because some guys don't have time on type? Why isn't that fare?) Yes and why is anybody "pilot whore" want to fly for these K bastards? You should join Delta, UA or AA. They don't make you pay for ur B777 rating. But, then again... they start you out as FO on B737; bottom of the seniority list.
Agree w/ ORD767. Rather then flying for KAL; driving a truck for UPS is much more superior. I'm sure UPS will pay for your Commercial Driver's License; Professional Truck Driver Institute for the double and triple trailers.
