The stream of cadets will not stop unless either a) they are all referred to relevant PPRuNe threads about Flexicrew before signing up for their training or b) light is made in the public about the probability of illegality of FlexiCrew in terms of using contractors in permanent positions. Of those that visit this site, most of them/us have heard conflicting opinions on whether or not the information is truthful or exaggerated.

As much as I question cadets signing up at the moment given what is going on, the attitude of some senior flight crew, at least on this forum, is shocking.
What will happen when captains start being told they have to take lower T&Cs or upgrades have to stay on or be transferred to Flexicrew - will they 'unite' to stop this as they preach to the cadets or simply blame them for this as well? Needless to say I'll standby with the popcorn to see what happens as at the moment with the LHSers sitting on, from what I gather, decent employment terms there seems to be an attitude of pulling up the ladder and sodding the rest.

People keep ragging on being realistic but as I alluded to earlier, unless the current staff are proactive and not reactive about this situation, it'll just continue until it's too late.

BALPA appears to spectate throughout so probably best not to bother them.
