This forum does not lend its self (generally) to complex technical
discussions on issues such as those raised in this particular post.
Therefore an overly simplistic observation by myself..maybe. MF I am very aware of the market at the moment and do for the record hold an ATPL, so I could go.....if I wanted to but I don't. I get a net increase of £500 a month at the moment. Does it keep me in? Get serious. Sit down and look at the whole package if it does not suit then go. If it does, stay. Excitement at airline recruitment figures has been going on for years and oddly, they have been recruiting for years. Anybody who has ever wanted a job as an airline pilot that I have known has got one eventually regardless of the intake of the airlines. The woman in question raised some observations from her side of the fence. I am not defending them but she is entitled in our democracy to her opinion, which will be read by a substantial amount of people. We need to ensure that with many more questions (probably) on the way we understand the arguments and can offer a coherent and factually correct response.
