Several things wrong here of course. It is not the Vereinigung Cockpit which will do all in its might, its the Konzerntarifkommission Lufthansa (company representative council of LH within the VC) that will do. VC and LH KTK are not the same and have very different interests in a lot of cases although the KTK is of course a part of VC.

Lovely! It´s so nice to see the VC discussion even flipping over from PILOTS.DE to PPRUNE!
What VC and LH TK have in common is, to avoid eroding T&Cs. And that should be in the interest of all pilots.
And this is also relevant for AEROLOGIC!

Well said!

Thanks for those kind words about the DHL pilots. I think some of us are perhaps a little bemused by what's happening! We shall be working alongside the Aerologic team over the coming years and I for one, look forward to saying Hello to those Aerologic pilots I met at interview.

Viel Glück!

First of all, i want to apologize for not contributing to the topic...however there is one comment that ticks me off.

@stardust cologne: Yes, I am sorry for that, but I was really upset about that posting. Germans who are arrogant like this are the reason why most Germans are very unpopular all over the world.

This statement is clearly false. It might be true only considering europe, however even then i would assume it is not. Taking it into a worldwide perspective...germans are recognized in a very positive way. I could probably dig out the survey, proofing my above statement...however, I have better things to do and I personally believe it is not that important. Do avoid any misunderstanding, it is not intended to be personal.

Now talking about Leipzig...i don't see why some of you regard it as an awefull city as it is clearly not. Nevertheless, Berlin is only 1.5 hours away by car, depending on where you live in Berlin...as most of the Autobahn (Freeway) has no speed limit...furthermore the airport has it own freeway-exit...so that shouldn't be that big of a problem.

Best regards...

Ah, another Cargo project of Lufthansa... :rolleyes: I hope they do better with Aerologic than with Jade Cargo in Shenzen, China. They fuxxed up big time there :ugh: Especially in the beginning they were a laughing stock among the aviation industry in Asia - especially because of the selection process for pilots :p

Hi there
 

This place have been very silent.
C'mon, insiders, tell us what's all about!

No more captains
 

as we already told you in our last email you were one of more than 900 captain candidates who applied fo a job with AeroLogic until we closed our hompage in the middle of this year.

Since we started our screening in March we have been able to recruit 26 captains (average experience 16000 hours) to get our operation going.

Unfortunately we were not able to invite all of you for our screening process.

We plan for continuous upgrading to keep a balanced seniority structure as long as possible. So right know it looks like, we will be hiring only first officers for the future.

If there should arise the need for more captains we will open our homepage again with more details.

For personal data protection your data will be removed from our data base and all files will be destroyed as of today.


Again - thank you very much for being interested in our company.


All the best for your future and many happy landings!

Hi 46
 

When you got this ( a bit arrogant...) message? Was it signed? It was in response of what?
Interesting times...:D

Hello FF,
I received the email yesterday, and it was signed by 2 managing directors and the head of HR.

Deutsche Post plans thousands of job cuts.
 

Any idea how this news might impact the planned launch of Aerologic?
