Agree! Wishfull thinking Prophead sorry mate, just about everyone i've spoken to, most with substantial time on B757/B767 AND B737 will be applying - BA will not have a problem!
And to those FlyBe guys that are upset about the type-rating requirement: there are enough guys/gals who have been through the mill with what present management cultures and this industry as a whole as thrown at them in the past year, with these type ratings, that deserve a shot at the stability BA will offer, most I know will be over the bloody moon to be SH at LGW and LHR! Your time will come...
