Look guys, did you pay for your type rating training when you got taken on by BACX/BA CON? I suspect not. So, what is wrong with BA Connect/flybe asking for their money back if you leave before your bond period is up? Would you have joined them in the first place if they were like easy/ryanair? I suspect not.
Cough up. It's a very small world in aviation.

PS: I coughed up so you should do likewise!
