Reading an earlier post if anybody in Orange HQ believes for one minute that any Russian or similar pilot is going to provide cheap labour then they need to get from behind their abacus and do some reseach.
I know from experience, and Russian friends, that Russians know the western world is out to exploit them and they are as demanding, if not more demanding, than western pilots.
Looking around some years ago for ICAO A310 pilots, there were A310's operating in Russia etc. Despite offering 'western' monies never managed to attract one pilot. Once Aeroflot got A320's tried to find some Russian A320 pilots, point 1. they don't want to leave Russia and, point 2. if they do then somebody is going to have to make them an offer they can't refuse and that would entail investing in a larger abacus than Orange have at present.
