It's pretty obvious the person who started the topic deleted it, probably as it was about to get embarrassing for easyjet. Pity, it was warming up nicely!
I seem to recall that, with the removal from service of the CRJ, we needed to lose about 28 (might have been 23) pilots to avoid redundancies.
Therefore, the company has allowed people to leave with reduced notice periods in order to encourage a reduction in the pilot workforce- this being preferable to redundancies.
The point here is that the company is more than happy to see the people leave, as it saves them having to make redundant those who don't want to leave (ie most of us).
So, what could be perceived as a "flood" of resignations is, in fact, the best thing that could happen (from a financial point of view).
All the talk of "everybody trying to leave" is wishful thinking on some peoples' parts.
There was a lot of other bilge on the original thread, so let's not go there.
