Wizzaird,
My apologies. I stand corrected. You are in the know, i am not, and the situation has changed.The return of a DEC scheme for SFO's with Airbus ratings is, I'm sure, a very welcome and sensible step - especially after such a long hiatus.
What a shame it wasn't allowed a few months ago, as I'm certain that there are plenty of willing/able candidates out there.
Best regards from a slow paced life. I hope you are doing well :-)
When you can offer daily freelancing, I am available.
