As far as I know they don't use Flica unless that has changed.
I'm a hair away from going back. Strongly considering it.
I'm only hearing great things about the company. Depending on when you left, a lot has changed. My source in the recruitment team says management has come down and visited with them often, and even hinted at growth beyond just 50 seaters next year. Perhaps even expanding the network with a new base (or two) in the next 12-18 months.
I'm also seriously contemplating a jump over there, though I'm not a former like you. Everything I've heard has been positive. Perhaps we'll see each other in class.
