Firstly, when have I ever stated the numbers in the pool?
Secondly, I can assure you there is more than ONE hold pool.

There is the main pool for Mr wannabe "off the street" (with about 15-20 in it)
There is the pool of MPL students
There is the pool of Thomas Cook cadets (coming soon)
There is the pool of Mentored/Part sponsored Cadets from FTE etc.
There is another pool that I really can't be arsed to try and remember about, but it's something to do with sponsored cadets.

The bottom lot on this list are being given preference over the main pool of wannabes - fact. If you are in the main pool then there could be a long wait for a job.

Should the market pick up and all the pools empty then all Flybe has to do is get on the phone and call any number of the 1,000,000 applications they have on file and they'll get starters almost straight away - another fact.

p.s If you want to be a pedant and argue the toss that the "cadets" waiting are not in a "pool" then that is up to you, in the cold light of day, they are awaiting jobs
