does anyone have any idea how this is going to affect people in the hold pool? The press release says:

Over 100 new jobs will be created directly through local recruitment of pilots and cabin crew
Does that mean that they are planning on separately recruiting pilots from Northern Ireland? It seems a waste of money to put people through selection again when they have people in the hold pool ready to go! Or could it just be a little PR wording mixed in?

Also, as I understand it a lot of NI pilots are flying for Aer Lingus as it is so I guess they will be very keen to move back home!

any thoughts?
