The Mood of 2020

““The situation myself and fellow former Flybe employees find ourselves in is not an easy one. While most of us at least have our health, the worries that redundancy and the coronavirus have put on us and our families are considerable. It has been hard to see much light at the end of the tunnel, with the aviation industry being particularly hard hit. It is with this in mind that an event such as the Aviation Job Search Job Fair is so important.”

John Prudence, ex Flybe Line Training Captain

““There is no ‘right’ way to handle the pandemic, it’s constantly evolving so the response has to evolve too.”

““I never understand why salaries are missed off job descriptions. I wouldn’t take the time to apply for a job which might not match what I am looking for.”

“I feel let down by my trade union, and by the company I worked for. They didn’t explore all options before making hundreds of us redundant.”
