The word on the street ( This news is about 1 month old, now) is that last year 99 pilots were lost, compared to about 30 odd the year before.
Talk of different pay scales for different qualifications (i.e. Fast Jet mates get paid more than same senority trashy drivers) has been quashed for the moment. ( they are waiting for the report on PLT retention to be published)
It still seems to me that the big wigs are putting their fingers in their ears, and pretending that the problem will go away if ignored.
The upshot of all this, to me at least, is that nothing much will change for the current PLTs in the short term, especially those who have significant amounts of ROSO left.
