I know 'ehh' ? lol

I really feel sorry for are those pilots at JetsGo who have lost their jobs and also the money they've been asked by the airline to provide for their own type rating.

I believe it is very likely that insurance companies were a major factor explaining Virgin Nigeria's relatively high pilot requirements. Considering the high number of incidents involving commercial aircraft in Africa and in Nigeria also, insurance companies may be reluctant to offer packages similar to those offered in Europe or North America.
