Agreed things are looking bleak at the moment but we need to wait and see how thighs pan out. So far RyanAir has only threatened to move operations and its new hangar abroad and easyjet has also only threatened to move as far as I am aware. This may be subject to change depending on how the government decides to reinvigorate the economy and persuade businesses to remain in the UK. Future concessions or tax breaks may encourage some airlines to remain under a UK AOC.
I am concerned how the aviation training sector will endure though. It may become difficult for EU aviation students looking to train at the leading flight schools such as CTC, Oxford, Aeros etc to obtain a student visa.

Some aspiring pilots might want to read this by Ryanair:
Ryanair will shift investment away from UK after Brexit vote

If you were going to apply for Ryanair (which I was/am) I knew it was likely to get based in Europe for first job anyway, the article simply states less new planes on UK routes. Growth still expected to continue. Meh.

The UK will remain a member of the EU for AT LEAST the next 2 years, and 2 years is measured from the moment the UK formally notifies the EU it intends to leave . The U.K. is in no rush to make such a notification . When the process does eventually begin, it is highly probably that an agreement to maintain the status quo with regards to labour will be reached.
Much more relevant is a discussion of the effects of the referendum on demand for air travel to and from the UK....
BA have already highlighted the fact that business travel demand was down even before the result of the referendum. This is more relevant and of immediate concern, than what may/may not happen in 2 years from now..
