to correct myself, have disappeared from the senoritylist.
scary enough to say that we could be close to a normal airline.
these numbers mean we have hired and trained 690 pilots in 12 month and sure there are still some to come.
but looking at the requirements as the requierments are low, i am wondering if there is still somebody out who wants. now all the TP guys have taken there chance to move to a big jet and i believe who is not here yet will not come at all.
what i like to say is that if all the pilots who left or intend to leave would be here things could nice. Recruitment has done it job but the unbroken greed, and ignorance makes it impossible for the rest.
let compare something else
LH has 120.000 employees and runs something of about 800 airplanes in the group. Average cost per employee over all> USD 110.000/year
800 airplanes with 120.000 Employees
EK has plus minus 65.000 over 240 airplanes. Average cost per employee over all USD 47.000/year
looking into that
LH has:
multiple stations
part time
maternity cover after birth (2 years for pilots and CC)
120 days off per year and 35 or 42 leave days (depending on the age)
Happiness factor 85%
what does EK have
labour is wastly cheaper and still we cannot manage to hold people
why? because of greed and ignorance
makes me feel sad
