G.Khan You really are an apologist for SIA are you not. Would you by chance be related to the Ostrich with your head firmly in the sand and therefore blind to all things around you.

I cannot agree with your suggestion that all the bad facts about SIA are coming from disgruntled ex F/O who skipped bail.

As we inSIA all know these guys were all totally deceived by SIA who hid behind pages of small print in their contracts which any lawyer would say was totally one sided and they {SIA} took advantage of their predicament. When these young people arrived in SIA some spent a whole year in office work before which did not count for their bonds and when those on the B747-300 when it was phased out found that their bonds on that aircraft continued to run and new bonds on their next aicraft did not start until the end of the other one even though the aircraft was no longer in service. No wonder some of them decided enough was enough and did a runner after 5/6 years.

All F/O's in SIA National and expat {not that many of these are left} are treated absolutely apallingly by this company SIA, They have their leave cancelled at the last moment ,they get sent on leave without any warning when SIA don't require them, if they are on a type conversion I have seen some have been forced to take 2 days leave because SIA did not have a Sim slot for a few days.
