laxcax23,
Don't know you or your friend or where you are from but Pitotman is bang on.....yes I understand things have improved at CAL compaired to before I started with them but that only shows how low the standards were before .
And believe me this isn't about a way for us to "reduce their competition" its about the truth and CAL has a long long way to go to be up to basic Western standards....
If its so good ask your "Western friend" why we have new hires quiting before they even finish training, just up and leaving in the middle of the night rather than finishing sim....I'll tell you why they can't believe how they are being treated and are refusing to put up with it.
Come if you must but get ready to go when you can.
Nothing will change here "they don't want it to"
