BACX Holding pool
I am in the fortunate position that I am in the "jet" holding pool.
Anybody in the same situation and if so any info on when they start any new courses.
Last update I got is almost 2 months old...
Cheers.

Can you tell me what your experience level is. Do you have Jet time already? I am interested in finding out how they are seperating those in the TP hold pool to those in the Jet pool.
Anyone else with any ideas also....

There is also an RJ100 course starting in Jan.
6 on the Course all destined for BHX!
2 have been taken from the Hold pool.
Not sure if these 2 are typed....
Happy New Year!

Hi,
I am one of the lucky ones on the Jan RJ100 course for BHX!
I am not type rated on the RJ, I fly ATR's at the moment, very fortunate for the lucky break, would be great to know of anyone else on the course?

Oh the agony of it all!
I was told offer would follow soon after check ride, that was in June. Guess I'll just keep waiting 30 guys rumoured to have left flybe so I can only imagine, if not the same kind of figure, at least a few will be going soon from Bacx.
Waiting to take that first step up the food chain!!!

Ive been waiting since June too! I spoke to Operations the other day and seems jet guys are leaving, dont know about the Dash 8 Fleet though, but under current circumstances you would think they would be losing Dash pilots too.
Apparantly they are publishing a long term forcast at the end of Feb so we may be told more then.
I for one am not hedging my bets on this job coming off!

That is a very sound bet; don't rely on this shower for anything. After 3 years of nothing but bad news with BACX the workforce is bracing itself for yet another cunning plan to emerge from the inglorious leadership team and that will be more bad news. If rumours about losses are true then the whole shabang is very close to imploding - another glorious achievement for the world's worst airline.
Chances are there will be yet another pilot surplus as aircraft are withdrawn. Morale has been rock bottom for ages and anybody with any sense is making alternative arrangements.
But if you want to jump aboard a sinking ship then keep those applications coming in.

No fears Judge my applications are heading elsewhere at the moment.
I am just waiting to see the first positive post put on this forum about BACX, but I fear I may be waiting a long time judging by the other threads.
My suspicions started after my sim ride when they said they were desperate for pilots and I would be starting hencewith.

Thanks everebody for the replies.
I guess I just have to be a little more patient.
I know there are a lot of rumours about at the moment(good and bad), but for me it really looks like the best move I can make.
Anyone know which airframe is in need for more pilots than?? RJ/emb??
Cheers.
