When in a year to eighteen months, Rosco is an Airbus captain, the market has collapsed due to its cyclical nature and there are no Boeing or Airbus jobs anywhere, then people's views on the TRSS scheme might be very different to what they are today. In my judgement, Rosco's decision making process is absolutely correct and he will be very well placed very quickly.
The best I can see for those who are waiting it out is a revised TRSS whereby salaries are paid from day one. I have no knowledge of that, but that is about all I can anticipate in the way of changes any time soon. Incidentally, easyJet will very shortly be announcing the best ever financial performance in the company's history with a 40-50% increase over the orignal predicited profit levels. That is despite the highest ever fuel prices plus a disastrous flight ops management miscalculation of crewing levels, which caused us to sub-out a large number of flights this Summer. We are not perfect, but for my money easyJet is a great place to be right now.

Like I said before my man ,you are perfectly entiteld to your opinion. Just to clarify though,the 23k is the same wheather you do the AHC or not and I'm sure most companies will insist on a bond being paid b4 you leave?. As you said though.....
All the best and good luck

Easyjet changed their TRSS/DEP terms lastmonth giving more recognition to types like the 146. I wouldn't envisage any further changes to it in the short term. Although I agree with most of NSF's comments, the company is hiding behind the supposed availability of low houred candidates. This will bite them in the long term when they become even more critically short of captains than they are now. However on the other side of the fence, guys who spurn it now are cutting their nose of to spite their face. There are plenty of Tprop guys who bit the bullet and joined the company only a year ago who are now going on command courses. Perhaps the emb boys should factor in the 'boeing/bus command in 12-18 months' into their figures.
