tili,
I do not, never have and never will work for BA.
Everyone else, I spoke with DHL yesterday. I,m type rated and experienced and they have offered to keep a position open for me for the duration of their recruitment. I,m nothing special, (sim ride was very average) so that must tell you how short they are of suitable candidates accepting offers. This can only go 2 ways. Either they improve the offer to the type rated guys or they start interviewing non type rated guys.
There will have to be a certain level of experience to satisfy CAA etc, but my guess is that if the non type rated guys are patient they will get a shot.
In response to wetpowers original question. Well if I answered that I might as well tell you who I am but if I said expat would that help.
Good luck.
