OAA employment statistics

This is just a genereal question about emplyment statistics on the OAA site. As far as I can see its the only organisation that posts them and wanted to get an idea of whats going on with job opportunities at the moment.

Please note that I have nothing to prove or want to criticize any FTO.

The statistics state that 53 have found work so far this year.I can see that 26 were Ryanair took 26 so i assume SSTR and that Netjets took 15, which I think is a training partner.

So I think that 12 have found employment the old fashioned non supported/SSTR way.

It would just be interesting to find out how many people went through the APP course and if the amount of people in training has reduced significantly?

And as a percentage how many have found work without being in a scheme or SSTR.

I suppoose I want to get an idea that with so many unemplyed pilots out there is the influx of F-ATPL'ers continuing or is there a trend of the market evening itself out IF there is a future shortage of flight crew.
