B787+Guy`s move
KAL has ten B787 on order and will get the first ones in 2011 you can find such information as well on the Boeing website.
KAL moved some Guy`s in the past from A360 to B744, from MD11 to B744, from B747 to B744 and B777, from B737 to B744 and only one to B777. There is no plan to move Guy`s from any Airplane in the near future as KAL still hires on all Types and all F/O`s are told they will not get any upgrade. On the other side who knows what is down the road in 4 or 5 years?? Maybe the whole system is changing then as they need more Pilots for the expansion and if Korea as a Country is not "producing" enough they have to consider that as well. As long as they get enough from outside for free why should they invest inside then??
All contracts are 5 years only and just recently the benefits for ExPat F/O`s where reduced and the Guy`s been told more or less: Take it or leave it......
Fly safe and land happy
