I sure hope these ex-ACers don't show up to work in SHJ unless they leave BOTH the "I'm an Air Canada Pilot", and the ACPA mentality behind. It won't work in the Emirates and it is certain to end in tears.
It's hard to teach an old dog new tricks and I certainly know from experience how difficult it can be to shed the old Company persona flight crew absorb after years with the same carrier. The new carrier will expect everyone joining to absorb the NEW company persona and culture. Something the ex-ers are likely to kick at from day one. (Human Factors: Listed under human nature)
Standby is standby over there. Not like in Canada where you get to play games and pass it off to Junior Pilot. I'm sure most AC pros are well aware of how it works.
But at least they'd be a well trained and well qualified bunch.
Hate to sound like a 'doubting Thomas', but I've seen and heard the horror stories of how these ex-AC and ex-ACJ operate and (in some cases) it hasn't been pretty.
...just the same,
Success to all!!!
