Hi FM,
I am swimming at the moment, though its been nearly two years for me so I'm almost giving up any hope.
Nothing new from any of my contacts in the company, crewing is correct and as such if they were to win another contract, perhaps they would need extra people.
I did hear a nasty rumour that mainline FO's may go RHS on the 145 though another told me that wouldn’t happen as it wouldn’t be accepted, mainline guys being paid more than 145 guys, and then, who would get commands on the 145. They thought it was all a bit complicated and unfair.
The thing is airlines don’t do fair, they do what’s necessary to keep costs down.
I wait with baited breath, though I am less hopeful than before
Best of luck to you
BRS
