"CAA Training"

Sahara has loads of p1/p2/CP/Instr training going on plus the recurrent training requirements, so all eligible p2s are being shipped to Luton, UK for "wet P1 training" programs with Alteon (ex FSBT). so wat you have is brit instructors from RyanAir/BA/Easyjet/Freelance chaps training Sahara pilots for command. New trend is that the check too is done by Brit Examiners (and try and impress the Stiff Upper Lips !!! its a tough task!) so in the end pilots learn little pointers from the CAA perspective as well, along with doing the good ol' DEEGEECEEAAAYE stuff.

Cant say its the right thing or wrong but it sure sorts out the training hassles for sahara right now.
