Polax52,

There is a tad bit of a difference between a job that requires a few weeks of schooling and an aircraft Captain. With the current experience rules it takes 10-12 years for a new hire to become a Capt at SVA.

Do you really think that with expansion and shortages as high as they are, the Royal Court will disable the entire country by terminating all the Expat pilots?

What will be next? Saudization by decree of the medical field?

Neither will happen in the next 10 years.

Just for reference purposes.... 50% of the A320 Capts are Expats.
