Flybe Meltdown.

Word on the Street is, Flybe are stuffed. There are Major problems recruiting Captains for the Dash fleet. Flights are being cancelled and the last two 146's returned to British Aerospace are being recalled/re-leased to cover short fall in Dash capacity. So now the 146 guys will be overloaded even more than they have been already. Don't forget that a lot of the 146 guys are now rated on the 195 and there is a delay on the next 195's arrival, so effectively a crew shortage on the 146 as well.
The meltdown has begun.
