There has certainly NOT been mention of 63 more to go, however there is most definitely anxiety amongst the troops on various private forums.

The original number of redundees was 50, which was mitigated one way or another to, I believe, 26.

The number 63 seems rather high therefore.

But make no mistake, Virgin won't be bothered about placing an order for 2011 and laying off pilots till then.

If BA is so far in the dwang, then VS could well be too. We just may never know, as VS are able to hide problems more efficiently due to being privately owned.

Glad I got out. And that is the truth.
