Not so long ago the ATPL allowance was removed. No one said a word. That was just the start of what came. Loss of competent Flight Attendants, while the lazy ones are still working. Then loss of over 60's. Omanis running for better secured jobs. Almost makes me think it was planned... Months later bahrainis recieve 80 or 180 BHD extra.
We pilots have no real idea of what the near or far future holds. I doubt the management does either. Most of us love living here. But to be shafted as we have seen others so many times before. To stay... Very loyal or very stupid.
You decide.
