BFS will have pilots based there from 1st June although these are existing Crew members who wish to be at home in NI. Further recruitment for BFS has taken a back seat to more urgent priorities like LGW. It is anticipated that more Pilots will be employed for BFS later in the year with the Winter schedule likely to hail the full opening of the Base. Cabin Crew have been there since 1st April with some Mainland based Crew being paid handsome bonuses, to make up the numbers, until a full compliment of locals can be found.
Of course there are some NI folk working for GO and I suppose these may also wish to be Based there. Probably wise that all current staff get their preferred choice before any new people are recruited.
In BFS, the future is most definitely Orange.
