Just a couple of questions to you guys and gals in the pool...

Do you have to remain current with the flying whilst swimming, by that I mean current IR and have flown around 50hrs in the last year? I seem to remember that Flybe and BA have some sort of currency requirements, does this apply to hold-poolers?

I am sure if you have been in the pool for over a year now since your AQC that skills will be getting a little rusty. Will CTC complete a mini course before your TR begins OR will they expect you to complete another interview and sim check before moving onto a partner airline? If so, could these courses/check rides be pass/fail?

Also having just finished an AQC, with the prospect of waiting possibly a year wouldn't it be an idea to contact Flybe or other such airlines and show them your results you may get a shot there.

Just few thoughts would welcome your views.
