No increase.. just inflation well not even that .Aiming at Africa but even there you find better T&C...commuting and block off days..and paid in USD. I think its really time they come to the realities of pilot recruiting. Heard pilots leaving in droves..10 at the times..they costed money to train..some got even new types.Being incredibly arrogant amd stubborn does not help...

[QUOTE=de facto;9432450]Same as you could have exploded in bruxelles.....and fly to Cairo and explode on the way back.[/QUOTE

Seen the geopolitical situation comparing Brussels to Istanbul makes no sense. Yes there was an attack to BRU airport but you cannot put on the same level the two events. Any risk assessment expert would tell you that living in Turkey and flying with THY at the moment increases the statistical possibility of being involved in certain events seen the geopolitical situation and somehow also the network. Should have been any non Muslim expat among the crew in the Bamako hotel he probably would have been killed for example. I understand that in Turkey this profession is still perceived as a business for though fearless men (and we can see the result) but beside those willing to take chances cause they have no other options the most of the pilots coming from the modern world agrees that is at least 40 years that this " style" has been dismissed as unhealthy. Lowering the requirement will not help acknoweledging the situation and trying to accommodate the needs of expat pilots would. By the way...Baghdad airport has been just hit by missiles...

Violent coups or attempted coups in 1960, 1971, 1980, 1997 and now 2016 as I understand it, - if ever you wanted another reason not to think twice about applying unless totally desperate in my mind!

As for how this latest incident and the airport bombing will affect transit passenger bookings, well I suspect they will head south to the ME3, although personally I would prefer to pay the extra and fly direct and avoid the lot if at all possible.

There are pictures showing ataturk airport ramps invaded by president supporters 12 hours ago, now flights are resuming. How in this world security can be granted in such a short time?

Plenty of jobs out there , for now, so no real reason to stay in THY. But i guess many will , for whatever reason.
You reap what you sow ...

Turkey suspends European convention on human rights. I would like to propose a petition to strip Turkish Airline of the best "European" airline. What a joke of a country..French intelligence says 100 jihadist cross from Turkey into Syria every week...European my arse!!

And that is actually where lyles the problem. When you are not honest, when you try to fool people caring only about your own return, when you try to take advantage of people without accepting criticism or any input cause you think you know better .you don't get to have many friends in the long term. And you are left with the worst.opportunists. Not one of them...sorry.

You should be a politician in stead of a pilot, lol. It sounds you know a lot, but I'm laughing

I'm happy that you left THY. I hope others like you should follow. Bye bye
