not a pilot or a management spy! though clearly my spiel was good enough to be either! actually i'm lgw crew, genuinely wanting to know who ww thinks will pilot the new fleet. unless i've missed something somewhere on this mammoth thread, it looks like gap year students, senior crewed by lgw seniors who live in slough, and ..... in the flight deck?
nb. no offence to any stereotypes!
why would any lgw crew move to newfleet on less t&c's unless it was for geographical reasons? so is it all to be made up from temps in the holding pool! and if so, what's to stop the same practice re pilots in the future? newsnight winding down, bedtime!
