Guys stop being so negative. I know on good authority that a number of pilots have already been employed and got their type ratings, others are on type rating courses right now, and others are starting courses imminently. Many more with employment promised in near future. Great news for the pilot community as a whole.
I appreciate that employing pilots etc means nothing (except for those now in employment!) regarding the business plan - but I would say things are looking bright despite all you cynics.
So watch this space and by all means slag them off if things don't work out - but in the mean time just give them the benefit of the doubt. Unlike other companies (eg JR) costs are being sensibly managed and contained....
