If I can take that observation one step further. For the last few months now, all of the successful graduates of the Wings courses have been transitioning straight into airline placements with almost no break at all. I am aware of one course who had to chase up their licence issue as they were starting with their airline the following week. Over the last couple of years that has not always been the reality, and given that Winter/Spring is always the strongest induction and training period, it might not be so in the next few months. However, as more airlines start to gear up for cadet recruitment, this looks like a very strong "ace card" if you want to be a serious player.
