Scroggs,
You didn't spot the deliberate mistake then? Maybe once I get a type rating I'll realise that a crew size should = at least 2
300 pilots for BMI now looks very low! Should be more like 400. In fact if six crews keep an aircraft operating for 12 hrs/day then nigh on 500.
That would more than 3000 pilots for BA too, assuming 7-8 crews/aircraft.
My basic point is that OAT do supply many fresh pilots - even if my on the hoof quess was trebled!
P.S. I'm really not this dull at parties you know
