Last reported on this thread, on 5th May was the estimate of fleet reductions. At that time, it was 2x767, and 3x747.

A few days ago, it was announced that the 'current' working assumption for winter 09 (from end Oct) was 8x757, and 8x747 to be removed from operations.

If these figures prove accurate, there are very likely to be significant implications for those currently employed by BA.

As a rough guide, the company have announced they are looking to reduce cabin crew numbers by 2000 (out of 14000 = 14%?) by 30 Sep 09.

Please feel free to draw your own conclusions.

PS: Admittedly not strictly relevant, but incase you were wondering, 14% of 3200 pilots, is 448)
