I agree with WW,

Regional bases, home life is still more than limited when rostered 5 or 6 lates straight!
6 day blocks are becoming more and more regular, often with just 2 days off.

pilot numbers are at breaking point, roters are usaully in high 80`s and 90`s (except for a few lucky ones), even part time guys are maxed out.
There will be no redundancies, aircraft may be going, but so too are crew members. many just waiting in the wings for a nice hello from Easyjet or BA.
recruitment will be in full flow soon, courses already running!

current crews are maxed out and shattered.
fed up with manahement spin and crewing taking the p155!!
moral at an all time low.
a quick shout round the crew rooms gets a chorus of agreements when IA is mentioned.

Time for Flybe to sort themselves out and start acting like the proper airline that they want to be and less like a minor regional prop outfit!!
