Been around for ages this deal. Same on their other fleets. What I never could fathom was that on one hand they take on DEC's but if you started off as an experienced F/O you would never see the LHS with them. Sure command training costs some money, but its mainly sim time and rostering standards and training captains to fly with you. Its not like its hundreds of thousand of quid. Why take on a DEC largely unknown to the company when there might be an F/O that has a clean training record that fits well in the company and has proven themselves?
