Then in the end you read in the newspapaers that they are short with pilots....(ah really?)
They have a flight school right here in zurich in same building , and use Swiss as a carot to attract wanabes and promise them they will get a job. Same thing with Oxford Aviation and BA.
I don't believe they have a pilot shortage. When all airlines in the world struggle and kick pilots out or are simply not hiring! no exception means no job.
Still this company is unfair, they cost to us 15 billion of euro, the biggest loss since the 2nd worldwar and now make fun of people.
I don't know any swiss citizen who got a job at Swiss as a pilot.Only for germans I think, or Swiss German.I know several employes from SwissAir who left because it was too hard to work for the new managment.
I know a few guys in the french part, what they have left :"Flybaboo" still not sure if this company still exist (or bought by Darwin)and Darwin for the Swiss Italian, but they hire mainly Italian citizen because capitals are from Italia.
Switzerland is a dead pond if you are not part of the Swiss german Club apparently.
Anyway, I wouldn't be happy to fly for companies who use discrimination like: you are a Crossair, not a Swissair, oh well I got already other plans for next year!
Crossair was a great company and they hired lot of new guys even with 200 hours.
Crossair has been destroyed by Swiss, and gave no hope to the next generation of non swiss german pilots. It' s really sad how things have turn out these last 10 years in this cows country.
Just sent my CV on line to see what their answer would be. I knew already their answer in advance because Swiss German are stubborn and have a high nose attitude and deep inside them they hate us because we are better than them.
