Zoltan,
If what you and Spetsnaz say is true.....then I feel very sorry for the few cadets who deserve their scholarship.....as the general flying community will tar them with the same brush (so to speak).
As I mentioned before, the scheme was DESIGNED for those previously disadvantaged communities who normally would not be able to persue a career in aviation. HOWEVER, if some hot-heads within SAA feel this is the easiest way to fast-track black pilots (with questionable backgrounds) into the airline then I am afraid SAA is a lost cause.
I pray that this is not the case,
God help them (and other aviators in their airspace) if it is.......
Ciao
