Historically there has always been a lot of focus on BA recruitment because they were so big and what they did moved the whole market.
Interesting to consider that EZY are planning a new Boeing every 8 weeks for the next 7 years. In the time we wait for BA to start recruiting a hundred new pilots more than that will have joined EZY in the meantime.
The interesting time will come when BA are recruiting for DEP shorthaul against EZY. Remuneration and time to command being slightly better at EZY this will be a first in UK aviation - BA on the back heal in recruitment.
I suspect that BA will improve their remuneration markedly in the near future whilst maintaining their superior workload.
Interesting and turbulent times.
