I think with the silkair pilots and the rest from asia, there might be a bit of a slowdown in recruiting!!
Sounds like a lot of type rated pilots might be on the market.
Hopefully this will only be a temporary lull.

What crap sooty there is literally 100, s of 737 Ansett pilots who are not given the time of day with VBand i dont mean all the dispute guys either..
It is a greater advantage to be in the regionals.
Same as Dragon really they never hire type rated a320 Captains it would save too much money.
:suspect:

Dragon don't employ Captains, they train their own, same as Ansett did, so why should they employ rated Captains. They do employ rated First Officers, however, so I suspect sour grapes in criticizing their employment policies.

Settle down Ramboflyer 1. I see your point but isn't it who you know with VB. All I heard was that some of the Silk Air guys had been applying and that VB were interested.
Maybe you are right about being from the regionals, I also heard they aren't employing many jet pilots because thay have to pay them more.
All rumours but isn't that what pprune is all about!!:hmm:
