I think the iCadets get paid too much. Comparing them to the DESO applicants from the past, AE and TT experience is significantly less and it shows in the cockpit with the occasional exception. They should get an apprentice pay until FO 2 when they actually become a useful crew member. Then they should get on the normal pay scale with full expatriate benefits.
Or scrap the whole International cadet program and bring DESO and DEFO back.
