I'm based at EDI at the moment. We're currently overcrewed slightly and GLA has the right numbers.

However there are a few away for commands shortly so you should slot in. I've heard of a couple of people who are currently waiting on Scottish bases who are in the company but don't expect a long wait.

Be aware that the company are currently wanting to dual base (EDI/GLA) all pilots. Currently employed pilots will be dual based if they volunteer and new joiners will be automatically dual based. None of us are happy about the prospect so just look closely at what you're offered.....if you live at either end of the M8 and have to do 3 six sector days on the trot and then have an hours drive at the end of each day you're going to be working awfully long days with a knackering drive at the end...

Dawn_Raider has it right, NCL is all -700 with fantastic routes and EDI/GLA are -300's but, if you believe the rumours, due to go Airbus in March/April/May.
