they are lookijng for experienced Capt's & Cadets with no airline experience, there are currently no offers for experienced F/O's.
Coincidentally the self same situation is more or less in existence at EasyJet.
I dont know where playstation gets his info but he is sooooo off the mark.
We are shortly starting command courses, promotion from within. We have a long list of very experienced SFO's, all on permanent contract, from where we will get our new commanders. We are also running more command courses than we need so we have a pool of people ready to use when the need arises - so avoid contract captains.
We are most definitely NOT recruiting experienced Capts!
