Recruitment

Hi PPRuNer's, has anybody heard when the AAR/BIH/ARS recruitment plan is going to begin for the FISHSAR contract? I would have thought sooner rather than later as there doesn't seem much time to go (in reality)? I will have thought crews will need to be employed and begin training by May/June at the latest to conduct company admin, type rating, company SAR trg and then 'in theatre' trg and assessments before beginning properly early next year, 2016?

Do people think there will be the correct numbers of supply of suitably qualified crews? Will they have to be paid a little extra because of the routine? Hmm, interesting times ahead!
