You’re correct there, it doesn’t - I’ll try to be clearer.

During covid there were different groups of pilots: PRP, PHP, hold pool, and those mid-assesment.

From the first three groups listed, I have not heard of one single person who was asked to complete anything (other than a pseudo-application to refresh their details in the system) before offer of a start date.

I’m unsure, but did hear that those who were mid way through the process were asked to start again.

If someone was swimming and saw that an external recruitment campaign had been commenced and then didn’t take the initiative to make contact to query their status… that’s on them.

The recruitment (and therefore training) footprint for the next 18-24 months is huge, best of luck to anyone who wants to join
