Situation not great.
- Recruitment frozen
- DEP hold pool filling up to ~100 and being closed
- SSPs being turned away (even after JOC), no more selection
- inside BA, surplus of pilots on some fleets & unpaid winter leave being offered
Yes, it has been a bit confusing, what with the full page adds in Flight for pilots earlier this year. I guess, best just wait and sit out the storm. Come back in 2009/10...
