You are right. Simply put, the Instructors are now NOT the most priviledged; indeed they are over worked to a point that they make mistakes. 95 hrs a month of instruction not only reduces the quality of training but errodes the safety margins. When the inevitable happens they are blamed and dismissed. Good old I.M.

New memo from the management. No days off request during December due to the large number of pilots on leave.
I wonder why? I don't think we will operate for 30 days in a row!! there must be some days off taken anyway.
Unless they are planning to give those days off during a layover!!

No joke:Regarding mistake related to fatigue
what is true for instructor is true as well for any crew ...expecially flying the 320!
Days off in december?, too late anyway, any request for december has to be done before the 1st of november!
Any news for the 2009 leave..? No bidding yet on the Aims..?

Despite the problems, i think the QR is the best option to a Non Boeing/Airbus Type Rated pilots.
Yes. I know that need to sign a Training Bond. But its only 3 years.
I am stil waiting to the assessment. I want to go!!!!

Of course QA is a good airline, what we wrote lately here was out of our care to improve the company rather than see it going down by bad managerial decisions made by some new managers, who did not know anything about the airline.
But it seems that these managers are on their way out VERY SOON.
Keep your fingers crossed; we are all hoping for the best to the company and the pilots at the same time.
