Talk about burning bridges eh, Ham!!
With an upper age limit of 35, even if I had the money and inclination, I'm already out of the equation (unless instructing constitutes commercial experience, but why an age limit anyway????) However, I would like to know this:
Of the 14 G.A.S. cadets with Astraeus with job offers at the end of their course how many already have jet/t-prop experience, how many have more than 1500 hours or less than 500 etc etc?
I don't think that it's as simple as it seems, I'd like to get a feel for who's being employed in terms of experience.
If that's too sensitive information with respect to Astraeus for a public forum then an email or PM would be welcome.
Sadly, as Luke Skytoddler suggested, the SSTR's are here to stay and they're probably the only chance I'll get to graduate on to a 737 or similar. However I need to know more, to mitigate the risk of denying my wife the few nice holidays she already deserves.
