Bin liner,
Keep an eye on the seniority list the coming weeks. I guarantee you it was a fresh DEC. Even if it's only ONE (I strongly doubt he will be the only one) it's one too many in this downturn and a flagrant breach of the company policy.
On the other hand, in the mean time we all know what kind of crap TCAS is selling in DXB. I still can't believe he gets away with all of this.
Upgrading is >4 years now and increasing rapidly, mainly on the Boeing this time. And that's a fact!
