In those days standards were high. These days, who knows ? Licence conversion would be much more difficult and potential employers far less welcoming.
This is where l had a gripe with a one Abbey Road and now Metro Man you wad into the same waters. Have you ever flown with an ex Air Zim pilot of "who knows" standard ? Standards are still the same as the days gone by and will never be lowered. And am sure you do appreciate any potential employer will put you through the rigours of an assessment before they turn you down whatever your background. And Air Zim has a lot of experienced pilots who unfortunately are not being paid their worth.

So Metro Man l do agree with you on the points you later raised, but just trying to fish out the "fly in the ointment" you had earlier brought up (ref: who knows) Am sure with the latest developements they will make the right choices on where to go and fly next. As you mentioned earlier many carriers have ex Air Zim pilots am sure the present crop once they make it through the interviews like should fit in like everybody else
