A complete and utter disgrace if you ask me (cadets to long haul). What kind of industry are we working in where we are allowing this to happen? This is good for nobody. We are fast entering a situation in aviation of one employer for life and no more movement between airlines. If you ever want to move employer then bad luck because they are only taking cadets. If your employer goes bust or are making redundancies then ditto. We are our own worst enemy in this industry, the bean counters should have been stood up to long ago.
