There are I understand MPL license holders with less than 1500hrs in MON just as there were in Flybe during their recent crisis when pilots were laid off.
MPL had only been going a couple of years and already there are a couple of participating airlines which have needed to lay off pilots whilst using the scheme. I think it is unacceptable and the CAA should be ashamed of allowing a scheme which indentures new pilots to businesses which no matter how well known or long established are proven to be financially precarious. By which I mean every airline in the UK.
It has been related to me that Carolyn McCall has in conversation alluded that ex-easyJet cadets now discarded by MON may be welcome to return to EZY subject to satisfactory training records. Good luck to all during what must be a massively stressful time.
