Bacon Rashers about to become PORK Scratchin's!

This does not look too good for you guys now. I think that the wise have already pulled the Black & Yellow handle early.

On a positive note, Easy are actively recruiting you guys to have a major dig at us. I think we will struggle severely this year to meet the commitments planned for the summer schedule. More so than in the previous nightmare years due to lack of crews and unrealistic planning /rostering and recruitment by other airlines elsewhere.

This is now becoming critical as we already have 146 crews trained up to fly the EMB195 but with the delays on 195 production I think we may have jumped the gun.
It will be interesting to see how many 195 trained crews go back on to the 146 until deliveries start again.
Word on the street is that the delays are significant.
