Email will come out within two to three weeks. There will be no thought given to hiring until next year: even though we thought it would be sooner, including myself
Only possible light is movement caused by filling the currently advertised positions internally which were put out around Sep 4th
From what I have heard advertisements were for 2 A330 Captains, 4 A330 First Officers, 777 Captains and 777 F/O's numbers TBC
This may open up half a dozen or more cruiser positions.
Fingers crossed
There was a lot of speculation into how much of the hold file remained, but I dare say its getting smaller, I know of at least half a dozen guys that were on the VA hold that have since moved on to JQ, TT, Cobham and VARA
Fingers crossed for that also
