And there is the "old" ATP pool; the members of which CTC have grouped along with the Cadets in equal standing.
As far as I know the new terms (not placed until the cadet pool has been exhaused) has been in place from when CTC opened for ATP applications in April 2009.
These two statements don't seem to add up. If the pool where the ATP cadets are equally ranked stopped operating in 2009 I don't see why FlyBoyFryer has only just begun his type rating. Surely this would mean he has the same seniority as pre April 2009 cadets and would have gone thought the system a long time ago with them?
Just a thought
