Unless mmmayday38 feels like expanding on his decision then it will always seem like a curious decision to me.
I would imagine that mmmayday38 would not wish to expand any further on his decision on this public forum. Anything posted here by him will likely end up in the press which could well make his job seeking position worse.
He will have good reasons for leaving and the extra cash of VR will make the decision sweeter.
Although the market is tight out there for jobs at the moment I'm sure a Captain with his wide experience will not have to wait too long. Korean Air's loss I would say.
