wind check - you started on here producing incorrect statements about the easyJet cadet contract currently on offer. Now you are making outlandish and woefully ignorant statements about flying the Airbus that are frankly embarassing. I fully accept that flying the A320 on MS Flt Sim is not too tricky but once you get out and about on a real aircraft of any kind, be it a Boeing or Airbus, you will just have to accept that some skill is required. You are coming across like a fresh air thief - you may want to reflect on your comments and think of a better way of engaging your readers.
Monarch Man - no one would dream of trying tell you that flying an A319 is difficult as they would just be wasting their breath. Nor will they tell you it is best to land with 3 greens as I am sure you know better.
Returning to the issue of easyJet recruitment - no one is justifying temporary commands, least of all BALPA. That is a reality they are having to deal with and fight as best they can. This is a serious fight and the only hope is BALPA fighting on our behalf.
