GulfAir/OAA/GAA/Mumtalakat/Tamkeen/BDB = Messy & unnecessary

Why can't Gulf Air just run a mentored pilot scheme?

If Gulf Air are in need of freshly qualified Bahraini pilots, they could have run their own mentored pilot scheme. This would involve GF running their own selection process and offering successful candidates conditional employment with Gulf Air providing they successfully complete and fund their training at an FTO nominated by GF.

- There would be no financial risk to Gulf Air
- The financial risk to the candidate will be largely reduced (due to the conditional job offer which will make access to a training loan much easier)

Wouldn't this be a win-win for everyone?
