Ahh tis interesting. Must have been last minute, the last I heard of it (sometime mid - last year admittedly) they had a specific candidate already selected! IIRC he was an abbo pilot that had done half of PFT(EFT, whatever..) and was suffering from incurable air sickness. Had passed aptitudes and grading type thingamyjig so they'd taken pity on him. Obviously decided the money wasn't there in the end!
