There are no redundancy opportunities for pilots.

I'm not entirely sure that manning know the size of the problem that's going to hit them in the next year or so. The only people I work with who are not openly discussing the timing of their impending PVR are the first tourist co-pilots who are looking at 6 years RoS post OCU. And most of them are studying for their ATPLs anyway. That and a few deluded half-wits who are convinced they will make it to CAS level. (Although the half-wits will be the only ones left so they might be in with a shout.)

People always used to talk about the grass appearing greener in the airlines; its not so much that, but the distinctly sh#te shade of brown that it has become in the RAF that will push people to civvy flying.

Thats better.
