'Pilot shortage' at Brussels Airlines

[EjetSetter]

Well here's the main question, do you think the airline will be forced to raise its T and C's to all new heights or are we doomed to see them suffer more and more?

How many total a/c?

How many pilots?

Time to upgrade?

4-8 newhires off the street into a training program? How long before they hit the line? Upgrade?

I think the pilot shortage at Brussels Airlines will last for some time and it is going to be Captains that they will need for some time to come. A colleague of mine who is a F/O was offered a indefinite contract with Brussels which is rarely heard of in the contract world but surely an indicator of the crewing crisis at Brussels!
