I have no problem with the cadets getting the jobs. You get what you deserve in life, most of the time. But as for there training being tailored made for airline jobs, thats crap. How many of their instructors have worked in an airline, or even GA charter for that matter. I learnt at a school that had Qantas cadets, therefore the same instructors. They were the biggest tossers I have come across. Not one thing they told me about my first job or the conditions was true. These people have themselves come straight from a flying school. I remmber 1 lesson getting shown a "commercial approach", high speed apparoach @ 300ft. I think the real industry term for that is a "beat up". I learnt more in my first 200 hours in my job then the 200 hours I paid $55 000 for.
