The more interesting bit concerns a number of pilots, who were trained under the pay-to-fly ATP Scheme last year. Apparently under an organisation called 'Sigma', they are being re-employed as salary-earning pilots for Summer 2009. That is most definitely not what was envisioned last year when this scheme came into being. We were assured that no jobs would be given to the likes of Flying Clara - it would appear 'she' knew more than we thought! Interesting times indeed.
Oh please. They obvioulsy attained the standard, otherwise they wouldnt be given this chance so why the grip? The news that jobs are available should be encouraging and not the opportunity to have a moan.
Just because they put the effort in and are now being offered this opportunity you want to critisize them? I really thought you were above that Fletch.
