All figures quoted before I believe. Rather like a Chancellor's budget in the House of Commons I fear.

There will be a shortage of suitably qualified type rated people without a doubt I am sure. However, reality suggests until we are firmly wearing the boots on our feet not a lot will change. Management will always seek to take the p?ss.

The reality is for wannabees with low hours you should look at the names mentioned...DHL,Go,easyJet etc....all BIG JET operators. The sad reality is that unless you get very lucky, you should still concentrate on the smaller operators for that first elusive break in a right seat.

It sounds negative, but it is reality i fear.

Shoot me down if you will.......

WWW/Scroggs, any thoughts on the new BALPA publication?

Regards.
