Try and stay positive and see what happens over the next few weeks.
According to rumour control there will be a fair increase in flightdeck positions, but as things "are changing on a day by day basis" that has yet to be confirmed obviously.
Good place to work, nice folk. Not Ryanair money but 4-500 hours per year who cares. I'm southerner through and through but all the bases have some really nice towns and country to live amongst ie Harrogate(All of North Yorkshire)/Lytham/Gosforth and Jessmond.
Good luck
