For those looking at time frames.
Verrrrry tentative from BA will be possible recruitment towards the back end of 2011. Then looking at between 150-200 pilots.
The above from the training department rumour mill!
Also bear in mind that the hold pool had the water emptied and those unfortunate enough to be swimming at the time will have to re-apply.
Not sure where RAFCARS stands at the moment but I used it a fair few years back and it worked brilliantly for me.
Best of luck.
