Again, referring to the roadshow talk....Chris said there were over 900 applications at the start of the year. They were expecting a lot of PPL's that didn't meet the specs but were surprised to find nearly all apps had the basic requirements. Since then, they have slowly been working down the hours chain. A month or so ago they were looking at 700 TT hour pilots. In the same breath he also said that a pilot is on the trainee course with 10000 hours and one other with the bare min Personally, I think the whole thing has probably got to big, hence the latest email and app updates...maybe an attempt to re sequence the apps and start the sorting process again.

Cheers, PA
