Stop, stop, stop! This is not the forum to discuss the pros and cons of joining BA as a DEP. If you have, or are likely to have by the time the ad comes out, the hours and experience that BA require, then you shouldn't be in this forum. Terms and Endearments is the place to discuss your points and preconceptions. I will, if necessary, split off your discussion to that forum.
This forum is for those who have never yet held a commercial position, and so the only point of relevence to this thread is what effect BA re-entering the DEP market will have on those carriers who do employ low-houred pilots. Which is the question asked in the first place (at least by mad_jock!).
Discuss....

PS The numbers suggested seem a little unlikely, as BA has not taken delivery of any significant numbers of new aircraft, has few on order, and hasn't lost (nor will lose) that many pilots in the near future. I would have thought, for the moment, that 150 per year would be about the maximum they could absorb from other airlines - if those pilots wanted to go to BA, which is not a given!
Sorry! Back to the topic relevant to Wannabes.....
