I thought he did offer his resignation, but because it's his name on the AOC (or something) they couldn't let him go......
Have to say from all the stories I've heard, I think FlyBE would do much better without him. Having an Ops director that many don't like, or don't hold in the highest regard, who implements changes that continually seem to be shafting the crews who make the airline work, can't be doing much to help.
Have heard as well about the call to other airlines. Not surprising really. Didn't he get a call from Monarch last year saying they'd had X number of applications from FlyBe staff, and they were just letting him know that should all pass the relevant tests, they'd be taking all of them!
It's fast approcahing that time of year again when recruitment will open up again. Any bets on how many resignations FlyBE receive this year?!?!
