Hi,

Just remember that in mid 2010 BA closed the hold pool saying that they could not see any recruitment needs for at least 18 months. 3 months later they re-opened DEP recruitment.

As I read the latest BA fleet bid results about 30 FOs will be leaving the 767 for other things. Although the fleet will slowly decline in number I don't think it is that quick as there are 21 B-767s and about 150 FO's on type. These places cannot be filled by cadets due to ETOPS experience rules. Where will the replacements come from????

All in my opinion and happy to be corrected.

Regards
