easyJet have not been in touch with cadets at all, sadly. Reading between the lines, the term "whitetail" mpl is, I think, accurate.
”Whitetail MPL” ~ an interesting concept......
One of the fundamental aspects is that your adopt the SOPs of the airline to which you are attached throughout the simulator phases 2 - 4.
To stand any chance for the future, the best you could do is to adopt Airbus standard SOPs assuming you were previously attached to EZY.
Regulatory approval for this novel approach would be wise.
Just how employable you might be against the other route with a CPL/IR issued remains to be seen, as you are limiting yourself to the phase 4 aircraft specific (unless you undertake a further type rating course after licence issue) and I suspect those operators who have experience of the MPL pathway.
Some might say a very ‘courageous’ decision.
