Skater, we must work for different Loganairs. Recruitment is continuous and management - particularly flight ops - is well aware of the situation. Preference is definitely for local pilots (although not exclusively) and there is an agreement with Tayside Aviation at Dundee to supply pilots to Loganair, so you could do worse than get up to Dundee and do a few hours in the simulator there.
Loganair - 50 years old next year - is and always will be Scotland's airline, you peasant!
