One of the snag for Flybe is that now it's listed, its problems are played out in public and there is huge pressure to report short-term improvements (i.e. quarterly). We all know however that what presents a short term improvement may not help out in the medium to longer term.
Sympathies to those affected as finding a new flight deck position will obviously be tough going, and many flybe guys have spent the last few years looking for the next rung up anyway but to no avail.
