real score srs.78
whoever you are you got it right.
hopefully this thread will be sent to local papers, espescially" PHILIPPINE DAILY TRIBUNE"
who claims to have unbiased reporting
"WITHOUT FEAR OR FAVOR"
reading local dailies, news about this exodus are only excerpts from the pal press release ,scanned and copied from a certain jonathan gesmundo, who doesn't even know the real score.
1998...pal wanted to destroy the union by removing the existing pal-alpap retirement benefits
2002...pal retrenched wide body contractual pilots on
pretext of redunduncy..
only to train wide body captains after one month , for the same postion declared REDUNDANT
these lucky pilots who were trained were the famous magnificent seven, who after getting their command and flying time, left pal and opted also for other airlines.
what happened next was what srs.78 is saying
QUESTION:
WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THOSE PAL BRIGHT BOYS WHO DECIDED ON 5 YEAR FUEL HEDGING WHEN OIL PRICES ZOOMED UP TO MORE THAN 100 US$ A BARREL?
PROBABLY WE MIGHT BE ENLIGHTENED WHY PAL IS LOSING HEAVILY, AND IN RETURN POOR PILOT'S ARE MADE SCAPEGOATS.
THIS CURRENT EXODUS HAS BEEN FORCED ON THE PILOTS.
IT HAS BEEN PLANNED IN SUCH A WAY THAT MISTAKES DONE BY PAL BRIGHT BOYS WILL BE BLAMED ON THE PILOTS.
