This is weird. A prospective new joiner, Warhammer, gives a factual description of how he was mistreated in the simulator by the instructors, and you have a go at him?

Thanks, Trader. Yes, it is pretty basic, but this is what people are saying:
Flying in excess of 90 hrs/month. 30 days leave, not 42 days. 60 hrs flown in a leave month (2 week blocks) so add 120...

Thank you, TU.
So when the guys say they are flying 90-100 hrs in a month, they are in fact flying 70-80 hrs and the rest is spent in the bunk reading or sleeping?

Apparently, I have been told, I heard, somebody told me... I would be really nice with some facts about Emirates, not rumours.

DEC is by far the cheapest way to increase the pilot numbers. It only takes one pilot and one transition training.
