I flew with a Swede Capt who was downgraded to FO for a year
, very nearly fired, for some sort of issue with this LOA thing. He thought EK knew about it but they apparently didn't, and when they found out, that was the result. I also flew sim support for him when he was re-qualifying for the left seat.
There is no doubt, you must resign from your previous company to join EK.
