Not as bad as I thought
There's a lot of doom and gloom about employment, possibly rightly so. Though those figures don't look too bad to me and are about what I'd figured from the main integrated schools plus a reasoned guess at number of successful modular students. New ATPL's of 1200/year isn't so far beyond the predicted vacancy figures for future pilot requirements (in particular the ALTEON forecast in GAPAN), to suggest it's impossible to find a seat soon after qualification. Especially if one is prepared to relocate anywhere in the world for that first job? It looks to me that the odds are about the same as they would be for any good professional job, which again you wouldn't expect to just walk in to.
