If Easy take large numbers of CTC Flexi Crew cadets. Dont they have to meet a certain ratio of experienced pilots to less experienced flexi cadets for the CAA?

Also, are their aircraft insurance premiums high using CTC flexi cadets or contract pilots?

I saw the posts regarding self employed, I work in I.T and the UK inland revenue caught up with many I.T contractors in the last 10 years and closed out many loop holes. Also IR35 as mentioned on here was an impact and originally brought in because of the I.T industry contractor market.

Perhaps one day HMRC will look at the self employed contractor models such as Flexicrew etc.
