NICK 14 - The DEC / OCC has not opened up - ask someone in Ryanair and they will tell you that. Don't give people false hope. I tried to get a friend in two weeks ago. Was told clearly by my Base Captain that no plans to ever hire DEC again. MUGABellew apparently blocking it.
Also very hard to get in to the cadet courses now. 50% pass assessments. Maybe cadets - try going to the Bridge "Ryanair" pub in stortford each week - you may meet the assessment guys.
ALPA320 - the Alicante cuts happen in Nov 2011. Check the facts.
WIDERED - ask any of the managers and they will show you the resignation data. Even the kids in personnel and accounts have it. Approx 140 total last year - hardly end of the world.
