Actually the line from the 'Goes Forth' series is
"I believe the phrase rhymes with clacking bell"
Ok, I'm a telly rat.
Ok so back on the resignation issue is the rumour true a senior airbus training Capt just left for CX second officer? Is it that bad to go back to the 3rd seat?

Life After EK: The Good Gen Thread
Gentlemen,
I move that some of the more forethoughted ones who have left EK can offer us some stories from their life after EK! I will be able to add my own soon, I am currently sitting out my last days.
Over one hundred pilots gone in the last six months, could some of you offer your thoughts. My friends who have left say it is the best move that they have ever made, I'm sure that we would like to read some first hand accounts of life after Mak-World?

It would appear that life is so good for those guys that they no longer feel the need to waste their days on Proon, unlike those of us left here in the 'pit.
Good luck to em.

Did you also drive a 911 Turbo, shipped your Harley and Jetskis to your new location, and is still bitching and moaning about the "pit".
Amazing the dudes that we have to work with - tells me what a sh
t place the sandpit is, then pulls out the laptop to show pictures of the Harley/Porsche/Jetski/ and condos in Durban/Brisbane/Milan. Then informs me of the 1 000 000/2 000 000/ 3 000 000 Dirhams that he made on his place Arabian Ranches/Green Community/Marina! (DELETE IF REQUIRED)
Then I say "YES CAPTAIN, IT IS A SH t PLACE TO WORK AND LIVE IN" and then I stare into the darkness ahead!

It's not all about the money...this article eloquently expresses sentiments about the place and the sad plight of those less fortunate.

9W being the reggo for Jet Airways i assume/
Heard many of the Euro commuters were heading that way, wanting the base at home. Good for them, hope it works out. Will give us poor stiffs a boost and the company a kick in a tender spot.

Jet: So far all Airbus guys... the numbers leaving will increase as the 777 recruiment picks up pace in a few months...and they're not the only ones needing the pilots...more to come.
Don't think AARs 'pay rise' scam is nearly enough to stop the rot. It may have damped down the fire a bit but got nowhere near to putting it out.
TCAS in CBC a few days ago seemed oblivious...or perhaps it just ignorance.

Will someone please apply for the soon to be vacant position of Deputy Chief Pilot Airbus. My inbox is filling up as they continue to resend the FCN with ever reducing requirements for the position.
