And if they have the same, arrogant, attitude that has come across on this thread then Easy are welcome to them.

(by the way, I haven't seen many flybe guys down at Luton, cos they just don't make the grade! ).
Or maybe they don't want to work for Easy. Try looking at how many ex Flybe have gone to the likes of Monarch, Brittania, TFly, BA mainline, GB. I believe it was Monarch for one who have been actively poaching a load of Flybe pilots for the last few years.

Wait till the press and the Sun reading public get wind of the fact that flybe is such a farce that they are promoting 1500 hour guys to command just to get 'planes in the air!
No 1500hr guys have been promoted. The last few have about 2500hrs, about 3 or 4 years experience, which is more than ample for a command (why would you need to wait any longer), and they're a bunch of very capable guys. And besides does having 1500hrs make you a bad pilot, operator or captain?

All this posturing from a minor airline like flybe makes me think there is a lacking in the manhood department!
You show me yours and I'll show you mine.
