Yeah 70 odd new hires sounds like a complete load of ****e!
Other than that 20 is the standard goss going around, but that depends on the 757 replacements, and any additional aircraft (if any).
All us FBW bods are hoping we pick up a 330 or 2 but thats just a bunch of desperate people including myself hoping to get onto the beach fleet. Nothings set in stone as yet.
But the way whats a 'confirmed rumour'??
