I'm not sure that your ex collegues in BACEX would agree. Knowing several in both camps (and being ex one) I would say BMIR was the best choice. All you need to do is look at the BACEX ATP base in Scotland, and you better look now as it won't be there for long!! It has gone from BA "Highland Division" on the HS748 to the ATP, to the subsideries. First with Loganair then eventually to BRAL/BACEX. Rest assured BA dont lose too much sleep about shafting their pilots!! Now I am not here to criticise BA far from it, not at all in any way shape or form. I just think you have more chance of moving to BMI mainline than to BA mainline. However that is just my tuppence worth. It is nice in these times to be faced with a choice, and good luck to anyone who is. Either company is a great start to your flying career. The training is first class at both and will set you up well for the future.

PS I think talk about easyJet going bust and BMIR being "shrunk" at the expense of Mainline is nonsense, and really a bit negative. If we all had your foresight we would be very rich men, and women.
