With the recruitment door all but closed for the immediate future, is there a possibility of a shortage of pilots for the international operation come say 2023 onwards?
With many I’d assume throwing in the towel prior to 65 in the current climate, re training ect
Project sunrise isn’t dead yet, it may become favourable in the years ahead with the new world as it be. 400 additional pilots were needed for this operation.
I’m a glass half full person but on paper it’s not all doom and gloom.
thoughts?
Take care all
Not all doom and gloom. We'll be lucky if we don't lose 400 plus pilots as a result of this. I can't see any recruitment for a very long time.
