Wingo, you do get paid whilst you're training, yes it's half pay but see my last post. 100% contracts are available with a bond, yes there are 70% contracts out there too and depending on your background you may or may not be bonded.
They're recruiting because they're expanding (do you remember what that means?) by 4 or 5 aircraft per year for the next 5 years so yes the cost base will go up.
The profit warning means they're not going to make as much profit as they expected, not a loss, and they've made a profit every year of their operation (do you remember what that's like?) but this year the market isn't as buoyant but we're still flying around with an 85-90% load factor (do you remember what that's like?)
Anyway, if one is going to pay for a job don't you think one will go for the job with the better prospects. Who do you think is going to pay extra money to fly a Dash? Probably those people who didn't get into Easy and are now desperate for a job, the very people CC doesn't want.
I don't have a Jersey hang up, neither do a laud something which doesn't deserves it. Maybe that's where your confusion lies.
