Always nice for someone to wish you luck , so thanks for that

Yes it is a serious project

As I mentioned I have placed a number already & some were NTR so
had to arrange TR etc licence conv

Seemed to go alright , but the CPs etc who I dealt with were continually frustrated
with the low calibre candidates CV sent to them by the big boys, combined with Sales types who knew nothing about aviation

The issue I think is the supply side of the equation, get that right & you will win

Feel free to articulate why the plan is naive (no Smart tone here )
