Yes, I remember very well a VA pilot expressing with immense satisfaction that the "stuck up" QF pilots might be made redundant, and they won't be welcome at VA either.
I didn't see that, quite the opposite in fact. The idea that Skywest, Tiger or QF group pilots would be poorly treated by Virgin pilots is total nonsense.
Say what you want about company and management but dare not speak of the pilots like that. I can't speak highly enough of them, they are excellent people. The camaraderie is excellent, if its not helping a pilot you've never met with an upcoming sim its lending a hand on the weekend to shift house. That includes the check and training department, done hundreds of checks and sims and never had a bad experience. Thats my experience.
It was intact this that drew me to the company in the first place and on that front I've not been disappointed.
Top notch.
