I too am in the TP holding pool. I called the other day out of frustration and was told that there are 30 of us in the TP holding pool, and no idea when the next TP course would be held. There's one starting in October, but none scheduled for November or beyond. Apparently they need board approval for each course they run. Reading between the lines I got the impression that it would be the new year before there would be any movement. However I was also told that the situation is very fluid with pilots handing in their notice on a regular basis. I would have thought it highly unlikely that they would run a course in December with Christmas and all but I could be wrong. Apparently call up to the courses is not necessarily done on chronolgical order (ie date of sim check etc). I have 350 hours TT and did the check in the first week of August.
I have no idea as to when, where or what. I can only assume new year, Manchester, Dash 8 Q300.
Looks like I'll be instructing for a while longer.
