Uhm....that was slighly confusing......
There are people on the December & January courses who are external candidates with no previous BA employment.
Me thinks a few too many peeps on unpaid leave and some more peeps getting close to 900 rolling hours might have something to do with the above.
Also people who knowingly applied for a temp contract at LHR are not getting pereference over those who intently applied for perm. contracts at LGW - and I think there is some sense in that. Off course there will be selection from that LHR pool coming down to LGW.
