When in a year to eighteen months, Rosco is an Airbus captain, the market has collapsed due to its cyclical nature and there are no Boeing or Airbus jobs anywhere, then people's views on the TRSS scheme might be very different to what they are today. In my judgement, Rosco's decision making process is absolutely correct and he will be very well placed very quickly.
The best I can see for those who are waiting it out is a revised TRSS whereby salaries are paid from day one. I have no knowledge of that, but that is about all I can anticipate in the way of changes any time soon. Incidentally, easyJet will very shortly be announcing the best ever financial performance in the company's history with a 40-50% increase over the orignal predicited profit levels. That is despite the highest ever fuel prices plus a disastrous flight ops management miscalculation of crewing levels, which caused us to sub-out a large number of flights this Summer. We are not perfect, but for my money easyJet is a great place to be right now.
