Stuff happens, and moaning about the management of your airline/flying school is totally counterproductive. They have to keep the business viable, if possible, and the yields are scarily low in the good times.
Couldn't agree more. I'm in a better position than some of my younger colleagues similarly faced with this redundancy, people who depend upon their salary to pay back loans for training. I'm taking the opportunity to take some time out to do some more training, removal of no applied instrument, night etc to make myself more marketable, and I'm prepared to work ad-hoc for whatever I can get until the madness of the money markets subsides and business picks up again.

It is really difficult, though, if you're young and struggling to make a week's rent, let alone run a car so you can get to work!
