Interesting article that may be of interest on today's FlightGlobal.com telling us what we already know (that there has to be an upturn in recruitment) but also some good comment and Boeing's latest take on the numbers game.
I guess my thoughts are:
1 How soon will the effects actually start to be felt by all those guys & girls who graduated in the last 3 years and still don't have jobs? (yeah I know - that's been the million dollar question for a while now :ugh:)
2 Will the lack of finance available actually play into the hands of wannabe's because the airlines may find it necessary to start sponsoring again as a result ... and potentially quite soon? That's my personal view - that in the next 2-3 years we'll have a few UK-based operators funding pre-selected, sponsored cadets through training again.
Mods - apologies if you want to merge this with an appropriate other thread, I didn't look overly hard for one to add on to I admit :O
