we weren't sitting around on our backsides complaining about the management style
Who’s complaining? I was posing a genuine question. I am aware of the Q400s on order, but this industry has a habit of changing at very short notice. Aircraft deliveries included.
You might even enjoy some GA experience in the meantime

Get out!!! Your time will come
I, like many others, have ‘gotten out’ and spent a number of years in GA. There are those of us lined up for the traineeship that don’t fit in the ‘newly qualified’ box but are unable to apply for DE. Not everything is black and white. As much as I want to be an airline pilot, I am unable to quit my current job, take a huge pay cut, head up North and to put my family in a financial hole for a career which, up until now, has not been very kind.
So people, calm down and perhaps don’t tar every traineeship candidate with the same brush.
