3MTA3 I'm not involved in recruiting or selection, so I can't give you chapter and verse on the subject. As far as I am aware anyone who has passed selection will be contacted as and when a place is available. If plans change to the extent that such promises are unworkable, you will be told. So I would expect that you are on some kind of holding list until places are available. If I were you, I'd ring Janine and find out!
LVL CHG from 3MTA3's profile, he's currently a B747 pilot. That should give you a very rough idea of where he stands in the scheme of things! As for the type of aircraft you could fly, please read my post early on in the thread. There are only two kinds of aircaft Virgin flies: the A340 and the B747. If it bothers you that much which you fly, you're probably not our kind of pilot!
