There are too many assumptions and arguments in this thread.

The FACTS are:

- it is extremely unlikely that easyJet will ever expand at the same rate it used to, as such there will be no shortage of suitably qualified FO to be promoted internally.

- if, under exceptional circumstances, the company will not have enough FO ready to be promoted internally (this is aviation, after all) they are certainly going to ask PARC or CTC to provide contract captains, instead of hiring DEC, to fill the gap until those FO will be ready.

This way they can guarantee those seats will be available again when internal FO are eventually ready (and avoid industrial action), but most importantly they can get the flexibility from contract captains (in terms of roster) that easyJet dreams of, which is impossible to get hiring DEC on easyJet contract.
