Interesting times. Well Im a 757 Captain for a good UK charter airline. I cant see many Captains from this company jumping ship. (Merely my opinion) I havent seen anything on this thread that hasnt even remotely stirred any interest in dusting off the CV. But, if I was a Senior FO going through a tough time... well Id have to think about it.
Dont be hasty chaps, its not in your interest. It appears that they will be hiring over the next year atleast. Let the dust settle and get it from the horses mouth.

EAT which is DHL already operate 757 to West Africa. There will not be a mass exodus of 757 Captains from UK charter Airlines. If you do not live near EMA you will spend a life in a bedsit ,drive miles home after work. If you sell up and move to EMA moving costs are horrendous these days thanks to New Labour increasing stamp duty. If any of you 757 Capts based at LGW leave to go can I have your job please.!! I don"t want to spend my life in bedsit and have to drive all day to get home so I hope there is mass exodus from you charter pilots and if there is the pay will have to go up at your old company and you will then wished you stayed!!

Forget LOS/ACC, the converted aircraft will not have the range/payload for the African sectors. Those routes will remain with EAT and the 2 B757PF that they have. The B757SFs will stay in Europe to replace the 72s.

Have to agree with aileron on this. All 757 Captains in my company are already on well over £60k+. Junior F/O's may go for an early command as there is plenty of dissension towards the bottom of the seniority list and many bonds run out this year. However for the rest, nope, nothing to get excited about yet.

1. Let's view pilot recruitment in a non LGW based 757 pilot concept.
2. Let's view this in a JAA (Europe Wide) concept.
3. Which airline, the largest UK operator of 757s, the very 34 involved, retires its pilots at age 55?
Lateral thinking, ladies and gentlemen, THINK ON.
