The 'second type' rumour has been around since FZ started 6 years ago. It's yet to be confirmed and will no doubt be around long enough that it will eventually come true.

More realistically, recruitment will be driven by FZ's current attrition rate which is probably the highest it's ever been.
FZ need guys, however training capacity can't keep up. We also have our highest amount of cadet pilots who take up a lot of resources, which is why FZ leans towards type rated guys as they take up less resources.

Once all the cadet pilots have left the training department you will see guys being pulled from the pool in larger numbers.
