Midnight cruiser: I hope you're right and you've looked at the actual statistics on it.
My fear is that the UK as the country instigating the break up cannot force 3,000,000 people from their right to residence or work in the UK. That includes the Pilots. 27 European countries will never get it together and provide work permits for Brits working in Europe, I just don't believe that is going to happen. I do think in the end it will be a one way street and Brit Pilots will be returning to the UK and EU Pilots will stay in the UK.
I hope you are right and I hope that what I think will happen does not pan out.
