Contrary to hearsay I do believe the contract between CTC and easyjet has been renewed and the relationship between the management is very good. Cadet hold pool is currently around the 60 mark, with yes roughly 12-14 finishing each month. I'm personally not expecting a great deal of movement for the rest of the year, perhaps a few to the charters in the winter. What will happen next year is anyone's guess, I believe NSF made a post in the easyjet holding pool thread and I echo his belief that no one really knows what recruitment needs will be for after the summer. The recession is partly based on confidence and no one has any of that at the moment! There are rumours flying about whether CTC will or will not renew Instrument Rating's if we are waiting more than 12 months for a type rating, I don't know. But as a low hour'd wannabe, I'd prefer to be in the CTC wings holding pool than out on my own.
