I believe intake for cadet courses has been completed for 2010
Numbers for 2011 will be reviewed, however things are "dynamic" at the moment with an "unknown" amount of experienced FOs leaving for Emirates. This seemingly includes recently upgraded Captains. The training department is closing in on it's busy period with all crews to be scheduled for RST/LPC two day sim training/assessment from October. The priority still remains filling the left hand seat positions and with training capacity shrinking due to demands on the training department plus the greater gulf in experience between cadet entry and command ready FOs some are voicing a need to shift policy in order to ensure adequate numbers making the command upgrade. This is dependant on much, however recent revelations suggest a little concern about those preparing to leave. Future candidates for cadetship may have to wait it out a little until the dust settles.
