300 => not true.. 162 where recruited last year. 34 of them are still waiting to actually join the KLM. There are recruited but waiting for a date to start there TQ. In 2001 the KFA started with a new contract for there student which won't automaticly gives you a job at KLM. Now 74 students (new contract) finished the KFA are waiting to get hired at any airliner. In 2003 KLM stopped recruiting. In 2004, 162 (Annual 50 "2003", annual 50 "2004", and new B777 50) students where recruited. The KLM Flight Academy trains approximately 130 pilots annually, of which an average of 50 pilots go on to be chosen by KLM. The rest have to join another airliner...

I'm half way the 74 of the list... But there is no sign of getting recruited at KLM in the nearby future. BA is a big oppertunity for us (new contract).
