It is interesting that their website has changed since the New Year.

Previously there were advertisements for flight instructors, ground instructors, MCC instructors and a variety of other posts.

Now the website is showing a requirement for only ATPL ground instructors.

Yet the above Posts suggest an even greater requirement for flight instructors - yet no advertisement.

Could it be that the company was embarrassed to be always showing a requirement for instructors on the one hand whilst on the other trying to court new clients?

It can't be good for new business if you are trying to sell a service, yet showing publicly that you are having difficulties providing that service.

General opinion seems to be that there will be a shortage of instructors able to deliver CPL/IR flying instruction under the EASA requirements.

So even if pay and conditions improve and the reputation or FTEJerez as an employer are restored, there will still be one part of the equation which is difficult to resolve.

Maybe outsourcing contract instructors is the way forward? However, it can be a short-term 'patch', rather than a long-term 'solution'.
