Good News AND Bad News for EK

[quarefellah]

Hi,
Heard this one the other day and thought I'd pass it on.

EK badly needs B777 capts for the aircraft which soon will be arriving like buses. They go to a well-known Irish recruitment agency to see what they've got....
The Good news is that said agency have 40+, B777 rated, lots of hours on type, guys eager to change jobs.
The Bad news is they are currently employed by EMIRATES:D :D :D

I love that one. Anyone care to confirm/deny???

Nice one QF! I'm sure it's true given that everyone I've flown with over the past 3-4 months is supremely pi$$ed off.

SuperRanger,
Probably those who had a chance to fly the Super Ranger the past few years

[Obi Wan Kirk]

Most of Malaysian Airlines B777 pilots are ready to move to Etihad, plus all Etihad's B767 pilots will get type rated.
