Sorry chap. The requirement was for military pilots straight from the training system to be routed through the posting system to any type in the RAF's inventory. That means Abos going straight to A330.
What ATr do for their company pilots is a different matter, but the majority of FSTA pilots will be regular RAF, and that means they will have to accept abos or the fleet will die.
One of the bigger challenges, that certain of our more senior brethren have yet to cotton on to, is that the RAF will soon be in a position that it won't need average "group 2" pilots (group 2 being streamed multi-engine from the training system). The challenges of operating 2-man flight deck, complex aircraft, in a tactical environment (C130J, C17, Nimrod MRA4, A400 and FSTA) particularly on low hours straight from the training system, means the standard/quality will have to rise. There will soon be no "soft options" available to the lower average pilot from training.
