And so these schools can remain busy not just during this current period and into the future let's end this ridiculous campaign by some against foreign pilots learning to fly in Australia and "taking our jobs" or "stealing our airports". China will be the one getting their economy back on track soonest, therefore will need more pilots the soonest. The training of foreign students will probably have to take a more important role in the future to keep Australian aviation alive and a great proportion of those will come from China. So let's end the nationalistic nonsense.
