It's a really big diverse and Bueatiful world out there.
These guys can't do another job and they got families to support. The aircraft is their second home and they are happy there. Turkish Airlines is just a huge and ever expanding privately owned enterprise with pilots from all over the world including many ex Olympic Captains. Soon it appears that the first Cypriot Nationals will be there too.
It is also the airline that has a majority share in Greek Airline Aegean. So in effect they too work for THK in a way.
It's an interesting world. Middle East, Asia, Europe ... it's all so fascinating and wondrous ... you need to be positive when your destined for KSA. So many westerners there too without such an insulated world view as yours.
