KADS and E G you are both spot on I agree with everything you have to say. As far as I am concerned paying for your own type rating with no hope of a job DEVALUES pilots in the eyes of the 'bean counters', they see another way to CUT COSTS.
Then to go on to work for free or even PAY THEM is disgraceful. If one airline is getting away with this practice eventually others will follow. The upshot of this is wages in all airlines will fall in an attempt to further cut costs.
Wake up bean counters getting rid of all the ground based middlemanagers and youselves will save a fortune! Money better spent on ratings.
Anyone for bean counter hunting?
