Okay H.J. The numbers in that light are rather depressing for the regional rats but I think a whole lot of factors are seldom considered. The number taken from the little rats should be compared to the Total of THEIR pilot body (definately not Qf's recruitment numbers over the last nine years) minus all who have not passed the Qf process previously (whether they went through the process while at a little rat or previous). I really think that Qf couldn't give a rats whether you work for a regional owned by them or not. I think the selection process is individually executed.
To qualify my statement I must also point out I do not work for anything with a red tail just an unbiased observer with my ears to the ground.
