Whether to work as CC or not has to be considered with what else is on offer?
What about chasing Ryr to work as a contractor with no job security and a further huge debt?
The point of these cadets taking the CC job is to get into the airline and have there faces at the front of the Q when the job market improves, which of course it will. If they take it as an opportunity and think about the future rather than the immediate present then it's a good move.
Personally I'd rather fly as CC for Flybe than for Mol as a contract pilot anyday.
Flybe has a working business model and it looks like RYR is failing as they can't afford to operate out of major airports like MAN or Stansted anymore (never mind operate into them!).....
