Bin me old mate. I for one would be grateful to hear what and why you feel that "everything in the garden is rosey".

I have been in professional aviation for 30 years and am frankly stunned by the downward trends here in EK.

The management model used here can and as much as I hate to say it will only have one outcome. That of a hull loss.

Every single competitor we have husbands the effect of fatigue better than EK, by very sensible augmenting policies.

I for one have never ever experienced this level of accumulative fatigue and the rather odd leave allocation just released will only make things worse i fear.

The regular rostering of Westbound ulrs followed by Eastbound 2 crew 10+ hour flights is frankly daft and I am appalled that our Management allow it to occur.

This used to be a great job, it is not anymore.

I for one am seriously looking for a way out of aviation completely.
