MEL One Year After
Dear all,
1 year has passed since the MEL scrape.
What have we learned from this?
Is EK a safer place to work and operate?
Did EK management handle the accident wisely?
Was It wise to sack the pilots before the ATSB has made a final report explaining the accident in details including human factors etc.?
Does EK still have “just culure” ?
What changes has been made and was these good or bad changes?
Is TCAS still the king and do we trust him to have an open mind with safety?
Any input to this
Cheers

Dude good questions!
1. Nothing. The silence is deafening!
2. No it is worse! Disgraceful rostering practices.
3. Very poorly handled.
4. No it was a typical knee jerk reaction! "hang the guilty basterds!"
5. What culture, it is the year 1431!!
6. We all work harder for less and are told constantly that we are lucky to have a job! Contract is constantly degraded!
7. Yes TCAS is still "king" but for how much longer is any ones guess. It will be interesting to see if he keeps his job when the final report is out?
I don't think he can even spell "safety!" Or "denial!"

Captain is good friend of mine and we spent a few weeks surfing together last month.
No out of court settlement - all wishful thinking from those of us still under the thumb.
Good news is that despite EK's best efforts they have not broken this man's spirit despite their despicable treatment after the trauma.

I know K's old neighbours. I can confirm no out of court settlement. And that EK never broke his spirit. Also, that the talking horse forced the crew to resign bdfore the investigation and then lied to other EK pilots and claimed the crew resigned. I wish K good luck. He is a really good guy.
