bushy,
Dont agree with "95 of evry hundred will not get an airline job."
QF mainline alone is employing about 100 pilots a year, last year 804 new CPLs were issued, one third to half of those will be exported out of Australia as they are foreign pilots from Zhejiang Airlines, Cathay Pacific, China Airlines, Dragonair, Emirates, Air China, China Southern, Korean etc.
Other airlines are still employing also, both turboprop and jet jobs, not to mention the people who gain employment overseas.
