Emirates DEC
and so it begins, EK sending out emails to pilots who did not get in last time as DEC, "please update your details and hours, due to market forces we are now recruiting B777 DEC" what a joke, and all the F/O who have served their time over the last 4 years and who have prev Command can suck it up and do some more babysitting with the newbies, a shame.

Does it really say, 'due to market forces'?

Just out of interest - is this non-rated DEC or are they recalling previously failed rated DECs? Or just guys who didn't quite have the experience levels desired last time?

I fail to see how this is going to do anything but exacerbate the present shortage of F/Os, as it will force many who were thinking about leaving to pull the trigger.
Apart from that, we'll now have DECs with limited experience of both the operation and the aircraft passing on their wisdom to low-experience F/Os. What could possibly go wrong?

The sad thing is that there are far better options out there for 777 drivers who may be stuck in the depths of Guangzhou or elsewhere in China and want out.
This has the potential to get very ugly if they can't get the numbers of DECs that they feel they need, which we all suspect they won't.

@ Beachbum: yeah and that's gonna work? Not in our lifetime..
What they should do is refuse to fly with guys that don't have a clue instead of holding their hand: file an ASR every time they need baby sittin.. I feel sorry for our FO's that will be caught out, specially those júst being left in the 'cold' because of that.. I was on that side not too many years ago..

What does it say, when they are contacting people who were found not suitable last time, to say please try again.
Mix that in with a whole lot of inexperienced Fos.
The third floor will love it. They will be able to hand out final warning letters at a record rate.
