NSF,
If 146 time is regarded as "heavy turbo prop", howcome BA and Virgin are more than happy to take 146 pilots. Couldn't agree more with the CTC snobbery thing. Shirley (sic) it is the recruitment process that should pick out the "decent" candidates. If Easy consult CTC over the recruitment process, then perhaps it will be Boeing driven. Out in the non-aviation world, recruitment does not take the "I drive a bigger car than you" direction. At the end of the day TRSS is purely and simply an accountancy driven fact of aviation life and it stings the potential employee well and truly where it hurts - how does that encourage people to stay at Easy.
If I do have to swallow that bitter pill, I may have to and go the TRSS route. But CANCELLING TRSS would be an extremely good thing for both moral and loyalty and perhaps even safety.
I would though dearly like to know where all that £23,000 goes to. And on top of that where on earth does the cut from the reduced salary go to........
