EasyJet have confirmed that they will be taking a huge chunk of the holding pool between now and next spring. That will take what is in the holding pool right now. So then that leaves the people that will join the holding pool between now and spring which I am guessing to be about 100 people. This is just an estimate.
Considering that the holding pool was in the 200's only a couple of months ago, this is a big move in the right direction
Figures right now can be mis leading due to the large numbers of people now being type rated.
As I said this is just an estimate, so take it with a pinch of salt!
