I think its a very fair assessment. Another serious issue for people who wish to have a career with TCX is that we are sub chartering an Airline in for a second summer. Last year was on the premise that due to Sky service's demise 2 more jets were needed at very short notice. So why is the company getting away with bringing these Aircraft back for a second season?? Words like unsustainable, and the 'summer vs winter' imbalance are the excuse, but the reality is that the Airline doesn't need as many Pilots and the number of commands are being reduced. I believe the union need to stamp their feet over this one quick!!

What I will say in the company's defence is that the conditions and people are pretty good when we look at the behaviour of some of our competitors of the past couple of years, and the general T's and C's of some of our low cost counterparts.
