AF is one of the best airline to work for but not one of the best with safety records, why?
I used to be proud of AF but time has come to say I am not anymore.
Technocrats took control of our job and make the rules (Cible avion, Captain autority......)
This concerns all the pilots.
FTL and licencing (MCL) are the main reasons of downgraded safety in the Worlwide aviation along with maintenance and fuel price.
Cost killing starts with payroll.
AF kept good working conditions with no or less fatigue issues.
Too much self confidence is the deal.
Training should start with knowledge of competitors or smaller airlines way of working.
Qantas is a great example to start with....
Be able to say we are not the best but happy (and not proud) to work here.
Bon vols
