All will be revealed.................
Here comes the 29th with both fleets in separate meetings at the same time in the same place...................
RUMOUR CITY OR WHAT??
Seriously, have spoken to an un-named manager recently, 6 might be a smaller number than in reality.................didn't elaborate any further than that.
He also stated that the company's preference would be to promote from within as he would be a known candidate, rather than take an unknown from outside.
And please don't think for a minute that anyone on the EK pilot force (may-it-be-with-you!!) has the disillusioned idea that they are in any way capable of influencing the company........more chance of serving pork in-flight and if that's what 411A is trying to say then I have to agree.
But surely this is a RUMOUR network..........not a supposition network as 411A would think. Of course DE captains MAY be around longer than we think, no one is 'huffing and puffing' about it. We're just trying to find out if any one else has heard anything. And as some of the contributors to this thread are a little closer to this Sand Pit, rather than the one in Arizona, I know who I will be taking more notice of!
But the tone of his threads leads me to believe that his CRM skills are non-existant and I would hate to fly with someone like that. All Captains, regardless of how one percieves their ability started as a First Officer, even 411A. Maybe he has forgotten that in his senility..........
PS while he(she??) is on my ignore list, it still makes interesting, but mainly laughable reading when I know whats coming!!
