Great post Tail Rota . Anybody departing EK for 'nefarious' reasons should have no problem finding gainful employment - there are loads of jobs on A330s etc.
I knew TCAS would screw things up for EK , he was soooooooooo popular in BA too , luckily he did not bring his sidekick the Prince Of Darkness with him methinks. Although , if he had , things would have come to a head by now , perhaps a good thing . BALPA kept these fellows in check somewhat.
Keep up the good fight guys - makes entertaining reading and pprune is not off the air here !!
