Efly recruited a TRI/E two months ago, but who knows maybe they need more! All FO's are Italian and they have promised commands to three or four TR and experienced captains. None of the captains taken on are ex-Nex, I believe they are all ex-Flightline.

Nex have a number of qualified pilots who are available at short notice, however last I heard they were only crewing to a minimum level and as far as I know no one has been offered a contract yet, so they may well get other jobs in the meantime.

Sometimes it makes no difference having a higher MTOW/MLW 146 when the performance considerations result in restrictive RLW/RTOW's. I believe this is the case at WAT and GWY, where GTBIC was operating last summer.
