Concur. Beags generally speaks a great deal of sense but in his earlier post my 'master twaddle caution' illuminated. Beags may be interested to know where Emirates have just headhunted about 100 new flight crew from (and it wasn't the shiny fleet, that's for sure).
His petty prejudice against the evil yellow and blue is his own prerogative but is an absolute irrelevance to this thread. I trust that Beags would have the professionalism, if he was in a position of influence in recruitment, to distinguish a pilot's merit and qualification from the customer service standards of an airline for which he previously worked. RYR isn't short of ex-mil pilots either, Britmil et al.
