The proportion of ladies going through professional training with us in the modular system is already around 15% and growing, I would think that 12% is a target Easyjet can easily achieve, in fact it probably represents the proportion already under training. The suggestion that Easyjet will underwrite the loans (even if it is restricted to female recruits) doesn't affect the fact that female pilots will have to take out the same loans as the men and make the same repayments. It only makes a difference if the pilots either can't get a job or lose their position with Easyjet once hired, in which case Easy may have to pay off the loans. In that scenario Easy have some control over who they lay off and who they hire. In addition it seems to me that the practicalities of this proposal mean that Easy will either underwrite the loans when the pilots are hired (that is to say once licence training is complete), in which case the female pilots will presumably be taking out new loans at that point, or Easyjet will be nominating future female employees before the start of their training at the point when the initial loans are taken out, which likely restricts this to the MPL scheme. It will be interesting to see how this develops in practice.
