EPIRB,
Just who told you that load of ......
It is true that some ausssie pilots try to bypass the system but if you are an overseas national with extensive time and that is quality time, QANTAS and any other airline for that matter would not ask you for all 7 subject passes. And that is straight from the horse’s mouth.
Please don’t try to support the training schools who preach that philosophy. If are clever enough you will understand just why they do it.
Happy and safe flying,
The SD
