If the QF recruiting department wanted the cadets to get some GA experience, then why do they send them to Airnorth?? That's not GA, that's a regional airline? Flying from 2000m sealed strip to 4000m sealed strip in the RHS not making decisions really defeats the purpose I think. I think everyone would be better served if the CIPP (Cadet Industry Placement Program) was changed to "Go Out and get a job, and come back when you have 1000hrs." But then the cadets would have to go and find a job like everyone else has. Wouldn't want to make it a level playing field would we???
And Mole1010, you're kidding aren't you? It's attitudes like yours that are annoying to fly with and give the majotrity of 'good' cadets a bad name...
