I have a suspicion that the new generation of pilots starting out in Australia see being in GA for any longer than 2 years is a failure by the pilot.
Its all aboat getting multi crew turbo prop time as a leg up to the big jet.
Cobham Coastwatch
Rex
Sharp
Skippers
Jetstar
Virgin
If these companies could source all their pilots via pay for training, sorry "cadet scheme" they would.
RFDS is now stuck with trying to source pilots who used Govt funding to pay for their licence because they failed to get into one of the above schemes.
