senior pilots leaving easyJet
Senior pilots have resigned from easy in recent weeks. What do they know that the average line pilot does not?
The recent advert for a post at Ford air attracted a flurry of applications from current easy pilots, including one right "near" the top. Also , at least two training captains have resigned in the last month and recently one top trainer resigned his post. Couple this with a flurry of resignations at Go after the take over and a shortage of an alredy overstretched resource seems inevitable. Recuitment would be an obvious answer, but the latest twelve offers of employment sent out were never returned. On top of this , some below par recruits were canned ( quite rightly) and there has been an exodus of Virgin pilots to their old airline. Are the Belgians next to go or will it be the Dutch? The English are being offered Stansted slots en masse by Ryan who are keenly trumpeting about how stable their rosters are. It will only be when the pilot resignation rate exceeds the business plan allowance that things might change and per chance that time may be upon us??
