flyBMI about to fold

a recently published article makes for some interesting reading. I can't post it as i'm new on this but a google search of flybmi news will show it. It's written by the kid Alex Macheras who is no more than a nobody with some social media following however if what he's saying is correct, it doesn't look good for the company.

Looks Bad. Think I might be at the Job centre Monday. :-(

Anyone need a pilot. ATPL.4000TT, 2500 Multi Crew Jet. Command recomendations. Current as of yesterday. Based Glasgow, or commuting contract.

Either that or a taxi driver ?

That's the betting. I hope so.
I think a Tartan uniform would suit me.

Flybe/Connect/Virgin (whatever we are at the moment) are desperate for DEC onto the Q400 with a GLA base probably available immediately.

What a real shame, feel sorry for all the staff and crew affected by this. It feels like every other week and airline is collapsing.

Good luck guys - awful to see this happening again to great people. Lots of recruiting going on though so hopefully you’ll find something quickly

Seems so wrong that this has happened for God's sake.

Good Luck to all you chaps and chapesses involved in finding pastures new, etc.
