It's very hard to know how long the Cityjet Wings scheme will take to get underway again. The first Cityjet cadets are in NZ training currently I believe (not sure of the number, 4-6 I think) and they are actually in a very nice position in that Cityjet have a particular vested interest in them. I have not seen the contracts, but I would expect the contract to contain a clause stating that assuming the cadets perform to standard through training, and also that the airline currently requires pilots, they will be taken on. I know Cityjet had an influx of applications at the back end of 2008, and I believe they mopped up a large number of the type rated Flightline guys too. If I'm honest, I would be surprised if another Cityjet course happened in 2009 given the problems this year will present. I hope I'm wrong there though!
