I sincerely hope this mass exodus happens.
Flybe now seem to have THREE sources of pilot recruitment. 1) The new Thomas Cook scheme 2) The original FTE part sponsored scheme and hold pool 3) The original original (!!) non sponsored hold pool.
I am unfortunate enough to find myself in 3) and have been waiting for a very long time. Obviously 1) and 2) get priority as there is an (in)vested interest for the company.
Very demoralising to be honest. The original hold pool is in effect a stand by pool now.
